The joy of waking to this view each morning is just so wonderful. Even if the camera sees all the distortions from the window screen, I easily ignore them. Many of these green trees stand near or by the Animas River which flows through the town.

Aloha ‘Āina

 From Emergence Magazine, a film that offers passion and love of the earth and our belonging to it.

Aloha ‘Āina

Directed by Adam Loften and Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee

“As someone who believes in transformation, as someone who believes in liberation, in ea, in sovereignty, in life, I think about the power of that imaginative space and what it offers for us if we honor it.”

This film is art, that is all.

"Native Hawaiian poet Jamaica Heolimeleikalani Osorio opens a space where we can feel what it means to love the land."

    1. That's probably something we on the continental US could learn.

  4. It seems to be a lovely part of the US. I have never been. My middle son has been with his Vancouver family and in-laws.

    1. I doubt that I'll ever go there. I remember living in Florida in the 70s...sometimes with people who were artists, activists, alternative life-style folks. That's good enough for me. But I love Jamaica's poetry.
