Oregon is bright this afternoon. 2026
A close-up, macro-style photograph of a bumblebee nestled deep within the center of a soft pink rose. The bee is positioned head-first, with its dark, fuzzy back and delicate antennae visible as it anchors itself among the tightly curled inner petals. The rose petals are a vibrant, healthy pink with subtle gradients of peach near the base, creating a spiral of soft textures that envelop the bee.

WAR is
not normal,
not natural,
not a necessity,
not a sign of strength.
WAR IS DESTRUCTION

The inner red/yellow tulip is hidden by a small petal. The full quote from THE END OF ALL WARS is: ‘We normalised war. We made it into something that naturally occurs.’ ‘True. We observe our actions, and then we enshrine the observed as truth instead of realising that we can shape the way we act.’ ‘What exactly do you mean?’ ‘We know that nations have waged wars for centuries and so we assume that war is something we naturally do. There have been calls for peace—’ ‘—a long time ago,’ one of us mumbled. ‘True. But despite of these calls, we never truly questioned war. We said we don’t want wars, but we didn’t explore how to make sure that wars could never happen again.’ ‘We normalised war,’ one of us repeated thoughtfully. ‘But not just that. We normalised injustice, inequality, exploitation, hunger. In fact, we never challenged the way we deal with each other, the way we settle, the way we live, the way we do business. We didn’t dig deeper. Mostly we let things happen. And many of us simply accepted the systems around us as something that is, not as something we invented.’

Zooming into the inner tangled life of a tulip. The full quote from THE END OF ALL WARS is: ‘We normalised war. We made it into something that naturally occurs.’ ‘True. We observe our actions, and then we enshrine the observed as truth instead of realising that we can shape the way we act.’ ‘What exactly do you mean?’ ‘We know that nations have waged wars for centuries and so we assume that war is something we naturally do.

Tulip flying in the wind against blue sky. The full quote from THE END OF ALL WARS is: ‘All wars are the result of a failure. A failure to communicate, a failure to cooperate, a failure to be rational, a failure to create, a failure to explore, a failure to empower. But the initial failure had been that we had never tried to end all wars — even though it is obvious that the only way to end one war is to end them all. The thinkers added: Curiosity is a key to end all wars because curiosity will allow us to explore instead of walling ourselves in, to open to the other instead of killing them, to evolve as a species instead of destroying ourselves.’

A sea of tulip petals in the sun. The full quote from THE END OF ALL WARS is: ‘All wars are the result of a failure.

WAR IS DESTRUCTION.
There is no sense

There is no sense

A sharp, ground-level Portrait Mode photograph of white snowdrop flowers (Galanthus) emerging from dark garden mulch. The foreground cluster shows vibrant green, blade-like leaves with clearly defined veins and nodding, bell-shaped white blossoms in crisp focus. In the softly blurred background, several other clusters of snowdrops repeat into the distance, suggesting a yard filled with early spring life. The light is soft and natural, emphasizing the delicate texture of the petals against the dark, earthy floor.
#Snowdrops sprung up around my yard! When I saw them, I just dropped down & started taking shots at various angles. I crawled through my yard & didn’t stop until I was sure I had captured every cluster! A quiet, steady miracle in mulch. 🤍🌱💮

I found a field of snowflake flowers on the side of the road. I thought they were snowdrops at first! Such cute little spring flowers 🌱

A hand covered in dirt holding a tuber (?) starting to bud in front of a large pot of dirt.
Screen shot of the website the flowers were ordered from showing what the black beauty peony will look like when it flowers, deep pure maroon peonies.
Alright, I'm stepping up my amateur gardener game. I planted three of these black beauty peonies today. Wish them luck!
