Dust + Form

Observations is a heartfelt attempt to offer meaningful connection offline. Each month, I send a handwritten letter, a poem and a couple postcards with a photo I’ve taken. Some months, I’ll even include little extras like a playlist or a small packet of seeds which I did for April’s mailing. Consider this a very curated newsletter in snail mail form. Subscribe by May 15th to get this month’s Observations 🌷

This month, I quietly launched a new project called Observations. It’s a monthly piece of mail that intimately offers a way to ground in this wild world we find ourselves in.

Here’s a little look back at what April’s Observations held:

- a handwritten letter

- a simple poem

- two postcards (one for you, one to share)

- SPECIAL EXTRAS: a stamp, a playlist and a pack of cone flower seeds for you to plant (because gardening and growing things builds hope, if you didn’t know 😉)

I’ve found it to be a transformational experience to simply observe what is taking place in the natural world. It’s where I can feel awe and wonder bubble up within me. My hope for you, who opt to receive these monthly Observations, is that you feel this same sense of connection and wonderment.

As the poet David Whyte writes in his brilliant poem “To feel abandoned is to deny the intimacy of your surroundings… Everything is waiting for you.”
