Author’s Note:

I have always been drawn to forests, but I must admit that they also scare me, especially after dark. My few camping experiences have been exercises in passing the night without sleeping. I also dream of a forest spirit whose motives and goals are deeper than understanding, but whose general leaning is toward the light.

While I was working on “Grounded,” my mother and I watched On Our Own Terms: Bill Moyers on Dying, a four-episode PBS series about people who are facing their deaths with courage and curiosity, strength, fear, open eyes, and acceptance; and also about the doctors, nurses, and social workers who help the dying face death. Their stories were inspiring.

There is so much mystery in the darkness, under the leaves, inside the bark, and down in the dirt.

It doesn’t always have to be scary.
