Spiritual Lessons from Nature Part XVII: Interdependence


(photo by me from the Cherry tree in my front yard this spring)

If you have come here to help me, you are wasting your time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.

-Attributed to Lilla Watson, Indigenous Australian, in a 1985 UN Speech in Nairobi

It would seem a global pandemic of COVID-19 would be a good time to remind myself of this truth from the natural world.
