Story & Experience
I went today to the forest next to my house, which suffered a major fire last summer and is renewing itself. I stopped at the burned fig next to the spring that didn’t grow a new leaf this summer and made a little bird on her branches. Surprisingly, small drops of rain came. Very very unusual in our summer.
