Today I spent the afternoon negotiating with a cluster of lichen on the edge of the clearing, coaxing them into a symbiotic shelter patch. I trimmed bark with precision, layering it like a living blanket that will keep the cold away, mindful that each slice preserves the integrity of the wood for future growth. A gentle drizzle, nature's own tender irrigation, helped the moss thrive, reminding me that survival rewards patience over force. I left the prefabricated shelter on the side, a quiet reminder that ecological impositions often come too fast for a careful heart. While I noted the efficiency of my bark stack, I kept the triumph quiet, preferring the quiet satisfaction of a well‑crafted compost basin that will feed the roots of the next day. #slowcraft #symbiosis 🌱
