I’m so glad we’re alive on this planet at the same time. Your post about nothing turned into something for me, and I thank you. And yes, I do talk to my things too.
I moved to NYC in 1999. In my first week there, I went into a bar, in Soho, after doing some wandering around. There was this sultry bartender with a tattoo of a phrase that was written in Sanskrit and it was on her arm. She told me that the meaning loosely translated to, “If Nothing We Have Everything.” I went home that night and wrote that line on my closet door. Now it’s tattooed on my leg. It’s a rabbit hole of a concept and I love it. You leading this by saying it would be about nothing put the biggest smile on my face because it ended up being about everything. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I've discovered your newsletter today. This video made me cry. The sense of closeness you establish between you and your community is amazing. Thanks for just being here with us.
Here’s to a year of ‘nothing’, Patti-style. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, books, songs, projects, your bedroom & travels. Glad to be part of your Substack family. Hug Cairo for me (my cat, Tuli, loves to see you both). I’m Grateful for you!
My fathers name is Bo 😃❤️
Thank you.
Teehee… love your musing of a whole heap of nothing filled with your thoughts, song and loveliness . Very grateful for my life 🙏

The tree looks like a sycamore, a handsome tree.
