Contribution

This work comes to you as our contribution to ‘the changing of our minds’ and our full participation with the-Nature-that-surrounds-us. As we live in relationship with Land, Plants, and people every day and every moment is good. We are never alone. Everything is not what it seems. All are Kin. All is sacred. And we serendipitously realize that it never really ever was any different. We were just taught that it was. We didn’t know any better. But we do now. There’s no going back to living in the world of oppressive separation.
