"In the beginning I was so young and such a stranger to myself I hardly existed.

One of O, The Oprah Magazine's Ten Best Books of the Year The New York Times bestselling collection of essays from beloved poet, Mary Oliver. "In the beginning I was so young and such a stranger to myself I hardly existed. I had to go out into the world and see it and hear it and react to it, before I knew at all who I was, what I was, what I wanted to be." So begins Upstream, a collection of essays in which revered poet Mary Oliver reflects on her willingness, as a young child and as an adult, to lose herself within the beauty and mysteries of both the natural world and the world of literature. Emphasizing the significance of her childhood "friend" Walt Whitman, through whose work she first understood that a poem is a temple, "a place to enter, and in which to feel," and who encouraged her to vanish into the world of her writing, Oliver meditates on the forces that allowed her to create a life for herself out of work and love. As she writes, "I could not be a poet without the natural world. Someone else could. But not me. For me the door to the woods is the door to the temple." Upstream follows Oliver as she contemplates the pleasure of artistic labor, her boundless curiosity for the flora and fauna that surround her, and the responsibility she has inherited from Shelley, Wordsworth, Emerson, Poe, and Frost, the great thinkers and writers of the past, to live thoughtfully, intelligently, and to observe with passion. Throughout this collection, Oliver positions not just herself upstream but us as well as she encourages us all to keep moving, to lose ourselves in the awe of the unknown, and to give power and time to the creative and whimsical urges that live within us.Binding Type: Paperback

Best I've tried in awhile
Size: 2.12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I'm not allergic to it & didn't burn! Wasn't greasy, easy to apply. Worked great for face, neck, chest and arms. Wore for a week straight. Didn't clog pores or cause skin issues. Worked great as a sunscreen. Stayed solid enough in FL heat that TSA didn't confiscate. Double bonus

Great sunscreen
Size: 2.12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is the creamiest best sunscreen ever. It's not greasy and it feels like it's definitely moisturizing and goes on super smoothly.

Great all around sunscreen
Size: 2.12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Love this product. I have dry skin and this is emollient but not greasy. Floats over my fave and feels just right while softening my fine lines. Light fragrance that’s not too much. I definitely recommend this for all skin types.

Itchy, red rash
Size: 2.12 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I suspect that they are lying about the ingredients in this product. I have never reacted to any skincare products except for chemical sunscreens. This product claims to be a mineral based sunscreen but I had a terrible reaction to it. I have an itchy, red rash all over my face and arms that's been taking days to improve. I can't help but wonder if they are not disclosing all of the components of this product. I will be returning this product and requesting a refund.

It really worked for me
I'm a cancer survivor am 56 years old, can't use fragrances or harsh chemicals and had a bad rash on my face for a long time. No medication worked. Tallow and Honey balm cleared my rash that was all over my face. It was very depressing because for a while I could not go out.
Right now, as long as they don't change the formula and it continues to works I will be a repeat customer. I find the smell and texture great, it does not interfere with my allergies etc.
I would reccomend it. I tried it first on a small section for about a week , then since I had no bad reactions I use it all over face. Morning and night. It is a great product, it has worked for me and I pray it works for you all as well. Good luck!!! Blessings and prayers.
