ABOUT ME

my self-identity in the process of dissolution...
have at some point in this lifetime identified as scholar, radcial feminist dyke activist, mommy, buddhist, tree-hugger, urban pavement dweller, student, teacher, pilgrim, exile, devoted partner, polyamorist, working-class, bourgeois, anti-capitalist, champion of anarchy, new yorker, californian...

i'm into healing and keeping healthy with plant food, zen, tarot, following the cycles of the moon, feeling the earth with my bare hands and feet, journaling, unschooling, honing my psychic abilities, getting to know all the little selves that live within me, discovering my True Self.

PHILOSOPHY

the way of the plants: growing upward and outward toward the light, while simultaneously rooting into the earth. trusting the wind to scatter the seeds of life in new directions while also doing my part to sew what i want to reap.
