Path & Ponder
Misty pine forest at dawn

Writings from Wherever the Path Wanders

Savannah Schaffer

The path is the journey.

And willingness to sit and ponder what you find along the way.

Welcome, I'm Savannah.

This is where I write about whatever I discover on my journey through this human experience. From Shakespeare to shadow work, mycelium and AI, and everything in between.

Exploring the vast expanse within and without.

I also run Pathwright Partners, where I help small businesses find their way.

Some questions are better held together.

Beyond writing, I also create spaces for shared conversations and community with other humans on this journey.

Lately

What's been with me.

Reading
Salt: A World History by Mark Kurlansky
Feeling
the summer energy winding down
Listening to
Wonderful Nothing by Glass Animals
Drinking
lots of iced coffee with rosemary syrup
Wondering
why it is so hard to learn how to love ourselves
Thinking about
the infinite interconnectedness of life

The forest.

Wander through quotes, books, ideas, and words that have taken root in my world.

You don't listen to a piece of music to reach the end. You listen to enjoy the great unfolding.

Ken Cohen

Perspicacity

The ability to see beyond the surface level of things. Keenness of vision and insight. To look through.

A Thousand Mornings

Mary Oliver · 2012

I always appreciate how her poetry inspires me to slow down and observe life, even the humblest of sights is a miracle of existence.

pronoia Opposite of paranoia. Suspicion that universe is secretly conspiring to help you. Doesn't matter if true; believing it makes it work.
