"earth's cramm'd with heaven, and every common bush afire with God" - from elizabeth barrett browning's 'aurora leigh'

these are my reflections about divine manifestations in both the queer and the mundane occurrences of our world, the ordinary and the extra-ordinary, the monumental and the everyday. i invite all of you flaming shrubs to find some kindling here and to keep up the slow and steady burn for justice, that aching longing within.

i+alia a to z :: l - lovely

getting into the visuals a little. this post is dedicated to my maternal grandmother who we belovingly call gran. she was not able to make the trip, but i kept a special record for her of a few of her favorite things, extra-but-ordinary reminders of the divine's loveliness and the divine's love for us. happy birthday gran! you are much on my mind.

p.s. also, thinking how lovely it is to meet don't-be-ridiculous' LOVELY family, and to be able to celebrate birthdays with them while away from my gran on hers.
happy birthday to mandy and hayley!
