Another beautiful piece.
This in particular passage really moved me:
She reads of a father in Ireland, wanting to die in Tasmania, and missing his opportunity to fly for the fourth time, this time by five hours. He will never reach home.
I really dream of dying on the steppes of Mongolia and perchance even recieving a sky burial. Regardless of the details, if I don't return to the earthworms and the trees someday, I will count it a loss, despite the fact that my flesh is a toxic byproduct to the soil. I certainly can't be worse alone than any landfill or barrel buried deep in any volcano of radioactive waste.

Allow me here to respond to your messages from yesterday...
Yes it is rather arbitrary of me to be so dedicated to steemit.com. And from what I hear people like HIVE a lot better. Still I'm having so much fun building up this steemit account,...
...and the fact of the matter is I'm damn-near exhausting my creative resources completely each day just keeping up with the activities I like to do here....
All that being said, HIVE is still on my radar for when the time is right. Thanks for your patience.

Also dear @riverflows I wanted to come clean about something.
These are still the Early days of my time on steemit, but in the very early days I made a few posts on your Natural Medicine community here on Steemit.
As the trying-to-love-the-planet-and-her-spirit-type Witch that I am -- with a strong interest in things like herbs and their spirits, not to mention medicinal actions -- I really wanted to be a part of that community.
Unfortunately moron that I am, I posted some things that prolly seemed completely irrelevant -- namely some images of my Heal the Planet spirit cards, which is a very raw handmade and ever-slowly-growing set of Oracle cards -- somewhat in the tradition of the tarot.
Looking back I can see why they were not recieved in your community. I personally think of my "cards" are a form of Natural Medicine, but I can see that the connection there would be percieved as obscure if-at-all.
Anyway not sure where I was going with that, but I wanted to get it off my chest....
Once again, it was nice to read your writing. I hope to hear back from you if you get the chance, dare-I-say my friend.
Oh I'm so sorry. Natural Medicine has moved to HIVE anyway, so we don't really look after that account much anymore - just once in a blue moon. I'm afraid I missed your posts anyway, so no need to be embarrassed!
Thanks for your kind words, and I know that it can be hard going from one platform to another.
You COULD start posting your writing on HIVE anyway, and only go in to respond to feedback once a week. It'd only be a matter of copying and pasting into HIVE and hitting publish. Why not get rewards there too? That's what I'm doing here, but I only get time about once a week or every few weeks.
Of course I have vested interest - I'd love to see your content on HIVE. I dont mean to be pushy, I'm just enthusiastic, and I feel my life is not as rich for not seeing your writing more often in my feed.
Oh and make me food for vultures and eagles, worms and bugs, returning to the great cycle of nature from which I came!
