Fri, 27 Jun 2025 09:07:16 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.34 By: Maria Theresa Maggi https://fatfreevegan.com/slowmiracle/2013/05/14/under-the-pear-tree-sweet-nothing/#comment-28124 Sun, 15 May 2016 15:57:24 +0000 http://fatfreevegan.com/slowmiracle/?p=1678#comment-28124 Thank you so much for this, Silvia. One of the most profound gifts of my life as a reader is when I have had the privilege over a lifetime or span of years to come back to books or pieces I read earlier and read them again and then again, each time with new eyes for all the layers of meaning it offers and I bring to it. It is the highest of compliments to me as a writer that you would return to read again and find new meanings. You made my morning. 🙂

thanks for the reminder to come back to this post.
2 years later I got a different and deeper meaning. Astonishing experience.
Your writing has so many layers. Thank you!
Greetings from Silvia in Germany

They can go into some delicious smoothies:)

My noggin is a little sore when I touch it at the contact point, but other than that I am just fine. 🙂 Thanks for the quote from The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating, too!! Lovely.
