We are Verbivores

An invitation to consider language as something more than communication — as nourishment. Drawing on the quiet, human rhythms of daily life, this essay explores what happens when we treat our words the way we treat food: as something to be chosen with care, digested slowly, and shared with presence.

Scope creep isn’t a flaw in willpower. It reveals how devotion, service, and boundaries live in tension. A depth-psychology perspective inspired by Hillman and Moore.
