What a beautiful reminder of gratitude and respect for the intricate web we utilise 🙏
Written by regular Wild Peace yogi Dixie 🙏
Life is dependence. We arrive into this world tiny, vulnerable, relying on others for nourishment, mobility, hygiene, sense and sensation, learning, shelter and guidance. We grow and develop, gaining the capacity to manage our lives with some sovereignty, but independent we are not. We may cook for ourselves, even grow our own food, but we rely on the elements to ensure our food grows lush and abundant. We may be able to dress ourselves, perhaps even sew or knit our own garments, but very few of us harvest our own cotton or keep sheep. Did you build your own home? With rocks you dug out of the earth and wood hewn by your own hand? When the power fails or your transport breaks down are you getting your hand dirty or calling an expert? Did you carve the track that became the road upon which you rely on to get to work? Do you print your own money? In illness, who helps you understand the issue and recover? Most of us don't even cut our own hair.
The saying is, "no one is an island". Next time you dress yourself, use a knife, open a book, walk your dog, turn on hot running water, wipe your tears, ride a bus, or look at your phone, (the list is endless) consider all the other humans that come together to make this experience possible for you.
Bless'd B*
