we must return it.

Standard

‘even a wounded world is feeding us.

even a wounded world holds us,

gives us moments of joy & wonder.

i choose joy over despair, not because i have my head in the sand,

but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and i must return it.’

-robin wali kimmerer, author, braiding sweetgrass

today, on earth day, and every day

  1. I feel the joy!
    I try. I recycle, reuse and repair. I make Art Gowns out of all old stuff. I’m a vegetarian, have a small garden, simple needs, don’t own a car, walk mostly or take public transit.
    Still, I don’t feel I’m putting back, but I do feel not taking much out.

    I – We have to do better!
