The night before last, I had a dream where hundreds of tiny blue/male peacocks invaded my bedroom. This reminded me to look up their symbolic meaning: beauty, power, immortality!

Great observation and it is a beautiful photo. I haven’t been on notes much the last couple of months, I’m glad you shared this photo here!

I wrote a poem with this Emily Dickinson piece in mind, before you were on Substack or at least before we were connected…

Kassi, this was such a beautiful read. The image of the slanting light with the framed peacock feels like a quiet reminder of how even the simplest things can hold profound beauty. It’s fascinating how something as fleeting as sunlight can leave such a lasting impression. The inclusion of Emily Dickinson’s poem was perfect—‘The Truth must dazzle gradually’ really resonated with me. It’s in these gentle, unexpected moments that the truth reveals itself in the most dazzling ways. Thank you for sharing this reflection; it truly brightened my day. ❤️
