The Commonplace

By Tsh Oxenreider

Noticing what's still beautiful, good, and true in the world. Because it's there—if you have the eyes to see.

Tsh's weekly 5 Quick Things letter and occasional essays about beauty, goodness, and truth are a highlight of my subscriptions. Always glad to see a new post in my inbox.
