Hi. Thanks for checking out my newsletter,

I hope you’ll enjoy this gentle exploration of the cycle of living and dying. It’s a big tent topic— so expect wide-ranging reflection and wondering about the mysteries we are all embedded in. I’ll be posting once every week or two.

Please pass this newsletter on to folks you know who may be interested. It’s could also serve as a good conversation starter around a dinner table!

Who knows how we will help each other as we consider some heavy topics with thoughtfulness, a touch of lightness, and even humour.

Building community is certainly happening in new ways these days.

Please be in touch, and let your voice and experience live amongst us in the comments section.

Nancy
