“O Earth! When will we hear you sing?”
Thomas Merton
Our children belong to a vast sacred Earth community. That belonging—to wild creatures, mountains and rivers, forests and deserts, stars above them and the stones beneath their feet—is their birthright.
How do we nourish our children’s sense of belonging and give them hope?
One way is through stories. Stories of wonder and gratitude. Stories that celebrate our unique human place in the intricate web of Life. Stories that illuminate the creativity we can bring. Stories of healing and protecting what we love.
