Over winter break I taught myself how to read doppler radar, downloaded a $10 weather app, took up apprenticeship by a local meteorologist and began my tornado journey. I am inching steadily toward my first of many storm chases. ]]> 2023-01-17 20:34:56 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447475178 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447475804 I keep a journal complete with poetry of mine, stamps, pressed flowers, calligraphy, incense spray, feathers and all things sweet. It helps keep me centered and I feel fulfilled when creating beautiful things that look old/fantastic/rustic/ medieval. ]]> 2023-01-17 20:35:33 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447475804 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447476067 Mary Oliver was a poet, professor and visionary. She writes electric poetry and prose about her experience with nature and the human struggle for belonging.]]> 2023-01-17 20:35:48 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447476067 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447496938 Over the Garden Wall is a cartoon that I fell in love with six years ago. I watch it every Halloween. It is a comedic, cute and dark cartoon. It helps people explore the feelings of being lost, hopeless, ashamed and guilty through adventure and self-discovery. ]]> 2023-01-17 20:57:46 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447496938 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447498549 Painting with watercolor has helped me find an avenue for my perfectionism, and has made mistakes something worth celebrating. I feel whole and at peace when painting, regardless of how many mess-ups are involved. ]]> 2023-01-17 20:59:35 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447498549 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447500481 This movie changed my life - changed the way I think about life. There will never be a "good time." You must do now. ]]> 2023-01-17 21:01:55 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447500481 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447501884 "To see the world,
Things dangerous to come to,
To see behind walls,
Draw closer,
To find each other and to feel.

That is the purpose of Life."

This quote is my mantra. On the first or last page of all my many notebooks and journals. On bookmarks. This quote reminds me to be ever-aware. Every day you go without doing something you love, you are losing. Make every. Moment. Worth remembering. ]]> 2023-01-17 21:03:24 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447501884 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447506813 I love to deeply engage with self-awareness, as it translates across the concepts of humanity, belonging and our quest for fulfillment (otherwise considered "happiness" though I don't particularly enjoy that word choice). What makes us feel alive? What makes us feel joy and gratitude?]]> 2023-01-17 21:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447506813 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447516580 I have an ideal place to live one day: a small farm with runner ducks, pygmy goats and desert tortoises. Complete with a garden and an appropriately sized orchard. It has a wood-burning fireplace and walls of cobblestone and I live there. And I can paint and journal and write and garden. Dry my own herbs, preserve my own pears. Just one day, that's all. ]]> 2023-01-17 21:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447516580 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447523647 Never been scared of creepy crawlies. I've always liked bugs, reptiles and amphibians cause they seemed to be small and regularly disliked (when I was little I felt that way too). So I make it a habit to see them when I'm walking and admire them.]]> 2023-01-17 21:28:15 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447523647 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447530443 Grayson, Zachary, Samuel, Josie and I make up 5 kids. Paired with the dogs, cats, snakes, fish and hermit crabs it makes for a pretty chaotic household and massive grocery trips. My parents and siblings are my best friends. I feel very fortunate. ]]> 2023-01-17 21:36:58 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447530443 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447544030 Being a Military Kid makes you flexible for sure. I've lived in 5 different states and two countries, but visited far more. I'm grateful for the adventure my dad's job has allowed me to have. However, I still hold certain distastes towards the military as a result of experience and thorough research on behalf of my senior thesis on Military Healing through Theatre (possible because of the BA Honors Program at UT).]]> 2023-01-17 21:53:37 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447544030 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447545976 Adventure is big. Risk, reward; beauty and chaos. My family embraced disaster early on - following many poorly planned road trips. Being able to laugh it off, keep your head about ya, and move forward with a positive attitude is of utmost importance. ]]> 2023-01-17 21:56:19 UTC https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447545976 hannahshepard2000 https://padlet.com/hannahshepard2000/ul9jycwvnhr126bc/wish/2447548649 Brené Brown has taught my parents, thus taught me throughout my life how to combat shame and fear - which eat away at belonging.

I think Tolkien is a prime example of the intricate worlds that humans are capable of imagining.
