365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

You make an interesting observation. Maybe the answer would be the ability to turn off aspects of our over stimulating world (as you have done digitally)--this would benefit not only for our eyes, but our hands, tongue, ears, nose, and psyche. Withdrawal (e.g. going to a quiet place...) is one of the most widely used defenses humans have, probably for this very reason, to simplify the world we experience.
ReplyDeleteMeditation -the ability to shut off our internal dialogue- is a very valuable technique and can be performed even without benefit of a quiet space if the practitioner has the skill. To my way of thinking, it should be taught right along with Readin', Writin' and 'Rithmetic.
