Hello spawn,

Little Jordans.. I do this for all of us. I write this in the hopes that we can change the world for you. So that we might leave the world a place where you still desire to be outside. I wish for you to step out into the chill of an autumn night and fear not for breathing deep the chill of the air. I wish for you to wonder at the beauty of the planet, but not lazily as I did, as a participant of your planet. I am small now littles and I may be small forever but in my small ways I will fight for you. You and all the good green and living things on this Earth. I promise you darlings it’s most of what matters in life. Your most certainly overbearing already adoring mother; your father too as he’s asleep on my shoulder.

My Mini & Lou,

Since I first sat down with these words, a pandemic has erupted. Racial violence is reaching a fever pitch and protests are raging across the nation. It feels like the planet is succumbing to entropy, slipping further into chaos. But I write to you from a time of shifting tides.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

I promise to only use metal straws and reusable cups.
 

Dear future child whatever your name is,

Climate change right now is really bad, I’m writing this during the COP26 conference in Glasgow (which is an hour away) and I’m listening to politicians talking about promises for the future. “If we fail, future generations will never forgive us.” -Boris Johnson
 

Dear Generations to Be,

If we could all slow down, look around and connect: with each other, the Earth, the sky, the plants and rocks and animals, then maybe we can all remember to treat everyone and everything with respect and live in love.
