Episode Four: So What if You're a Sad Girl

from Tales Unearthed · host Jessica Pixie

WARNING:This episode is about death and losing pets and people we love- if you are feeling extra senstive lately, save this for another time when you are ready.Join us as Lisa tells some stories about death.Yes, death. That thing we are all so very afraid of. And grief, something else we try to actively avoid. But on this day, we made some tea and DID NOT avoid it!We considered sadness in all its forms and in my view alchemized the experience. Because the only way we get to be here is by experiencing love, and the loss of who we love. A sacred contract with the universe that honestly sucks, but is the absolute soul of being alive. Lisa was such a delight to have on Tales Unearthed, her insights and raw honesty were an inspiration to all of us struggling with these same things.I hope you enjoy our conversation as well as Lisa’s beautiful photography linked below. If you should need someone to take photos, OR a delicious recipe (she also bakes!)

The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien Audiobook Raghvendra Singh The journey through Middle-earth begins here with J.R.R. Tolkien's classic prelude to his Lord of the Rings trilogy.“A glorious account of a magnificent adventure, filled with suspense and seasoned with a quiet humor that is irresistible... All those, young or old, who love a fine adventurous tale, beautifully told, will take The Hobbit to their hearts.”—The New York Times Book Review"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit."

But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away Vampires of the Paper Flower Consortium Elizabeth Guizzetti Come for the evening, stay for eternity!
