Eileen from page 64

We also grow our own chickens and
turkeys.
We're involved personally and give
to several organizations locally, help-
ing train farmers and supporting
food pantries to bring healthy food to
people who don't have the money to
buy it.

JN: What do you express through

your blog (eileenrockefeller.com)?

ER: The blog is an extension of
what's in the book. The categories
include environmental preservation,
self-health, poetry, reflections on life,
the importance of family, the joy of
human connections and connections
to nature.

JN: Do you still have time to write

poetry?
ER: I can't help myself from writing

poetry. I've been writing poetry since I
was 8 years old. My third-grade spell-
ing and word-study teacher recently
sent me two of my poems that she
had kept in her files. She strongly
recommended that if I write a book of
poetry, which I'm planning to do, that
I include them.

JN: Are there any new projects you

would like to pursue?

ER: I would like to find a way to
strengthen families. I mean that in
a very broad sense. [No matter how
the family is constructed], we need to
build back into our culture the value of
family enough to support it authenti-
cally, helping children in becoming
who they are. The future of our coun-
try becomes stronger because of the
citizens we raise.

CONT Pi ORARY

JN: How do you relate to readers of

all backgrounds?

ER: We all have the task of becom-
ing ourselves, and I share with every
reader the feelings of shyness, embar-
rassment, sadness, loss, happiness and
a great deal of gratitude. I feel a lot of
gratitude for being able to share my
stories with many others in hopes that
my stories will find points of connec-
tion with them.
