This is RealBestLife - my newsletter. As a small-scale tiny-time urban farmer, I have realized that life is basically magic. Things are amazing, and in the drumbeat of the day-to-day, so many people are miserable. Sometimes, I get miserable too after a few hours of doomscrolling on my phone. Do you know what helps us all to remember that everything is amazing? Goats. Cheese. Chickens. The incredible way that a tiny seed forces a sprout through soil. The overwhelming beauty and pain of living. It’s unreal. The world is amazing and you are surrounded by joy and heartache, life and mortality - so let me help to remind you. This is your Real. Best. Life. And you don’t have to be an urban farmer to join me in the adventure of remembering what it’s all about. Also, cheese.
