Campfires are one of my favorite things. As a little girl, I loved to char the end of a stick in the fire, and use it to write.
I didn’t realise the profound truth I was playing with. Often it’s out of destruction that we find the tools to create our greatest works of art. It comes with the accepting, the healing, and finally the drive to use what we have learned.

I absolutely love this!
And I too used to write with burnt sticks. 👍🏻
Thank you.
It’s so much fun isn’t it!
I always thought so. I used to study about things Native Americans did and I would find poke weed berries and use them for ink and dye. All sorts of stuff. I was probably more excited about doing things in the woods than all of my toys.
Bwahaha! Yes. We use to use dandelions to make yellow.
