Don't Hesitate (poem by Mary Oliver)
If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don't hesitate
Give in to it
There are plenty of lives and whole towns destroyed or about to be
We are not wise, and not very often kind
And much can never be redeemed
Still, life has some possibility left in it
Perhaps this is the way of fighting back, that sometimes, something happens better than all the riches or power in the world.
It could be anything but very likely you notice it in the instant when love begins
Anyway, that's often the case
Anyway, whatever it is, don't be afraid of it's plenty
Joy is not made to be a crumb.

Went ice skating for the first time in 10+ years on beautiful Lake Mendota. Only fell once!

Climate change is horrible for many life and livelihood threatening reasons. But today's uniquely crappy reason for me is that there are mosquitoes in my house in December. In Wisconsin.

Hello water-sky! Over here the lakes are blue AND green, the data is long-term, the experiments are whole-ecosystem, and the goal is building knowledge and tools for environmental change
