It seems like a small thing, but it can bring so much joy to so many people.

...the greater part or my spring happiness is due to the scent of the wet earth and young leaves.

The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles.

I stand in Minas Anor, the Tower of the Sun; and behold! the Shadow has departed! I will be a Shieldmaiden no longer, nor vie with the great Riders, nor take joy only in the songs of slaying. I will be a healer, and love all things that grow and are not barren.
