He quotes a man named Gary Snyder:<br /><br />To restore the land one must live and work in a place. To work in a place is to work with others. People who work together in a place become a community, and a community, in time, grows a culture. To work on behalf of the wild is to restore culture.graceonlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600679221472546269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7571714765362039648.post-64208893908798946652010-12-18T09:28:15.906-08:002010-12-18T09:28:15.906-08:00My life's purpose is to seek truth and to shar...My life's purpose is to seek truth and to share it and to live it.

But the questioning doesn't end. What is the human role in the world? What is it to be fully human? <br /><br />I was told..... the land misses us, mourns the loss of relationship. It is this longing FROM the land that pulls people back to the land - but they arrive, mystified, no longer willing/able to fulfill their role in the harmony of our world... and so the relationship fails because the humans don't know what to do, have lost their voice, their note in the harmony....and the land sinks into despondency..... <br /><br />What is it, to be Fully Human and In Relationship with the Natural World? What is our role, the one that no other creature can do? What is our voice, the harmony that no other creature can offer?Haydenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02758977872663382006noreply@blogger.com
