I love simplicity and silence. I enjoy taking photos of birds, and strive to be an actively decent human being. In late August 2025 I moved from Waikawa Beach to Ruakākā near Whangārei in Aotearoa. 100% human (she / her). Now 70, I'm super happy to be getting old — it means I'm not dead yet! I believe all beings have the right to clean water, nutritious food and adequate shelter, and that humans are simply one small part of the amazing life on this planet that supports us all: humans, animals, plants. I joined the MB community on 05 January 2018. Follow me on Micro.Blog at https://micro.blog/miraz .
Chlöe Swarbrick, one of our excellent politicians, in her Green Party AGM Speech 2025:
human beings are strongest when we define ourselves by who we are and what we stand for, not what we are in opposition to.
We stand for love. We stand for peace. We stand for justice. For people and planet.
We build the world that we want in our daily lives.
