pickThis is an interesting collection of reflections on human connections, written in the context of the COVID 19 pandemic. I didn't find his observations on inequality and the wider world particularly original (maybe that's a little harsh), but his insights into his creative process, his mental health struggles and his life experiences generally were really illuminating.

My apologies. I forgot to post November's read.
Our November read is VW's 1929 extended essay on the writing, creativity, and the need for women to have financial freedom and self-determination.
Three guineas is her essay on gender differences and inequalities.
All are welcome to join us. Please let me know if you wish to be added/removed from the taglist.

I went walking on Friday in my neighborhood on my favorite walking trail. I wrote about it in the Journal app on my phone and took pictures of these birds that I saw.
I saw this graphic about walking on Facebook and wrote about my experience with walking.

This morning I picked up my journal for the first time since I was sick. The prompt was “Walk About.” Because I was in bed 5 days, my response was so different than it would have been if I had been healthy: walking as reemerging, walking as recovery, walking as rebirth, walking as connection(with my students). #SeptemberJournalingPrompts #walkabout #day9
Prompt: Author
I can‘t say she‘s my favorite author but she definitely is whom I find to be most intriguing.

so-soAn old college book of my mother-in-law‘s that I‘ve always wanted to read. Not entirely a cultural point-by-point analysis of Mexican character and thought, but covers a good swath of Central American history and the psychological/philosophical changes a people must make to accommodate the coming of the conquistadors, Spanish Catholicism, French revolutionary thought and American imperialism. Paz, as poet, places ritual, love and poetry as balm.
