June is named for Juno, the Roman queen of the gods, protector of love, marriage, and motherhood. One of the birth flowers associated with this month is the rose, which is often called the “queen of flowers” and is a timeless symbol of love. Wishing you a joyful new month!

Do any of you remember this whimsical book from the 90s? The aesthetic of them is so enchanting, short letters between Griffin & Sabine in actual envelopes! What a wonderful gift celebrating snail mail from @belaski_meghan! #fuckcancer 🌎💌📫🌎💌📫🌎💌📫

So many dogs to save on a daily basis but one thing always guides me… Tina. I only had her for 6 months but she was glorious. Today the team are building her hospital. It’s just some huge holes in the ground and some foundations going in but I have to pinch myself every single second. It won’t be easy to get this done, fund it and kit it out but Tina is buried just to the side of it watching on. We treat lots of dogs already but this will be one of the best hospitals for street dogs on the planet! All in Tina’s name ❤️

An early morning shot of the Iceberg that was at Pouch Cove Newfoundland. It was just a waiting game to get some patches of light and interesting clouds to go with this big and beautiful iceberg. Unfortunately I don't think this Iceberg is no longer there.

You need to be memorizing things more. Learn one short poem by rote today. When you do this, the poem becomes a part of you. It furnishes your mind with beauty that can never be taken from you.

"If you find someone who makes you smile, who checks up on you often to see if you're okay. Who watches out for you and wants the best for you. Who loves and respects you. Don't let them go. People like that are hard to find." ~ Franz Kafka 🎨 Stanislav Zhukovsky (1927)
