CoastalCoasting / is on Nostr

Humanist here for storytellers, mentors, teachers, astronomy, geology, history, law, med pros, epidemiology, explorers, naturalists/biologists, artists, various other gratitude's to learn from and admire. Including the things I'm going to be stunned with wonder by, yet to discover. Still so much to learn and do.

Any day in nature with a picnic to share is my joy.

Scream. Breathe. Repeat as necessary.
I wish I could hug you while you grieve.

Dad used to fly model airplanes with pontoons, taking off and landing on water from a park by a lake. He did that for many years and loved it.
In the retirement home though, there are no lakes nearby. Luckily, there's a hobby group that rents private property and they all pitch in for events. Dad joined and went out with two planes this morning.
One crashed, but that's why you bring two! The second one he lost sight of in a fog, hit a thick pocket and it was a goner. He searched for it for a bit, then dejectedly went home. He's around 90 y/o and wasn't prepared for hiking offtrail, so he played it smart.
Hours later, part of the group shows up at his door, with his plane. Perfectly intact without a scratch on it somehow. They were elated for him, everyone had a great laugh.
What a lovely community he found. He'd been thinking the hobby wasn't fun anymore, time to let go of that. The people though won him over, he signed on to do it again next week.

Hope this message reaches him via a note to his work, or via coworkers. Many people go through life feeling they won't even be noticed if they disappear in some way.

The motto is neglect and ignore, and I think it's more a party theme.

"Man's attitude toward nature is today critically important simply because we have now acquired a fateful power to alter and destroy nature. But man is a part of nature, and his war against nature is inevitably a war against himself? [We are] challenged as mankind has never been challenged before to prove our maturity and our mastery, not of nature, but of ourselves."
Silent Spring, Rachel Carson
Happy Earth Day
