“Never stop spamming the timeline
with all the things that you love
if you live in a beautiful place
show me
if you are in love
show me
if you ate something delicious
I wanna see
though I may skip through
the 207th baby pic
by God, you should post them
your art, your music
your kitchen designs
the books you have read
your poems that don’t rhyme
fill this life with all you love
and share the joy with me
– David Gate
This poem struck us, because we kind of like to think of this magazine as a collection of people, organizations, art and words that we love. If you know someone who is creating something, making a difference through service, writing a book, making a film, working with clay, saving the bees and selling honey from their backyard, has a damn good lasagna recipe, or simply is just an outstanding human, tell us about them. We will keep putting this out until we’ve met every last one of you. We treasure this community and we’re grateful to be a part of it in some small way.
Your neighbors,
Shaleen and Sam DeStefano
