This year, for the first time, I waded across the river. The water was cold as you’d expect in the spring. Once my feet got used to it, I waded upstream along the gravel banks avoiding the deep spots. People don’t go there anymore; there are only animal tracks in the sand. A hornet flew by confidently navigating across the river. Several large animals passed through the forest along the bank; against the sun, I couldn’t tell what they were. They didn’t notice me. I love it.

The maple trees are now in bloom in the forest (and in the city, for that matter). Today I photographed this Acer platanoides in the forest. I find these flowers beautiful; at no other time of year do I see such a bright green-yellow color. The large trees shine in the dark forest like clouds of light, and the small trees near the ground, which have only a few fl owers, look like clusters of fireflies.

Today, once again, I heard a rather intelligent person imply that this activism—the fight for democracy, for human rights, for saving the planet from climate change—is just a hobby. I suppose I deserve respect, even if it’s strange. But I have to do something to entertain myself in my free time.
Once again, I found myself wondering for a moment if I really understand cause and effect. I’m convinced that all of this will bring enormous suffering if we don’t stop it. Am I wrong? Am I crazy?

#ThreeGoodThings
Three good things today:
🌱 I started learning how to set up a remote connection between two computers running Debian.
🌱 Today, a walk in the floodplain forest, lots of flowers, with my work team. We walked around and chatted. It was nice there. I found out that getting tired people into the forest is easy. I just wrote it down in our work calendars as a meeting.
🌱 Made two kilos of hummus, half with red bell pepper.
