On the open road. 31-July-2023
Hey everyone!
Just finished this book, and I have to say, it was comforting because of how relatable it was. The story has a soul-stirring impact on the reader, and this encourages them to make their own decisions.
“On the open road” is a story of finding one’s passion, amidst the monotonous society where everyone is thrust into an unsatisfactory job, and working towards achieving those goals. It is about the journey of Myra, Kabir, and Sandy, ordinary people who are looking to start their own business.
This beautifully written book is filled to the brim with raw emotions. Every character is going through struggles and hardships to prove their worth to society.
The biggest achievement here is that this story fulfills its purpose since it will propel you to pursue your dreams without the fear of failing because failure is unavoidable but so is success if you keep up your perseverance.
I would recommend reading this book whenever you feel low or think of taking a break to explore yourself.

Loving reminder from your land history auntie:
North American golf courses have had 50-100 years of arsenic and mercury based fungicide and herbicides applied to their soils.
Do not eat anything that has been grown on a golf course or downstream from a golf course. I know it sounds cool and radical, but you are too valuable to poison yourself with heavy metals.
Protect each other, turn your local golf course into a pollinator garden, not a sex forest or community garden.

Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.
— William Faulkner.

guys I had this realization the other day that Redwall works really well for reading aloud, and kinda half-remembered something about the author reading to kids? So I looked it up to see if I had made a connection.
And it turns out, yes, actually, because he read aloud to kids at a school for the blind. But all the books they gave him to read were depressing. So he wrote Redwall, a story about heroism and courage and making it through struggles, and filled it with so many sensory, visual details so he could give them something better and I just-- that's so wholesome-- help
