During my time at the Old Red River House, various animals have camped out for a time – a stray black cat for a winter, a fox for about 6 weeks, a family of skunks that lived under the abandoned house, and a little rabbit I was very fond of. And there was this quiet fawn, seemingly on his own in the world. It was inevitable that one day I would look outside and he would be gone, but I was still sad.

Look past our thoughts so you may drink the pure nectar of this moment.
