Raindrops and Roses and Whiskers and Kittens is an account of a few favorite things from Coltrane to Julie Andrews and everything in between.

Boosting (a lot!) and posting pretty interesting, pretty and interesting things.

Here for fun. No personal questions. Creepy vibes, anti-trans blocked.

The @Vivaldi servers are in Iceland. Icelandic electricity is green as it uses hydro power and a bit of geothermal. Wind is being added to the mix as well.

Our relationship with sadness runs deep because sadness is not a single emotion. It is a convergence of love, memory, limit, and longing. It is the honest response to change in a world we do not fully control. When we approach sadness with respect, it often reveals a quieter strength.
