Thank you for this earth peace treaty I will try to share widely.
a Monarch rising
or a blossom falling –
impermanence
my indoor bamboo
grow a clutch of tall shadows

Thank you for this sharing this Earth Peace Treaty Commitment. It is a gentle yet firm reminder of what we can all do from the tiniest actions to bigger ones. I feel grounded this morning in the knowledge that there are so many people around this beautiful planet who truly care about our Mother Earth and are doing what they can to make a difference.
Hi Maria, your comment has inspired me! 🙏🏻🌱🌏💚
Many thanks. I live in an ever expanding major city in Australia. The pace around me is so fast, on week days especially I’m surrounded by traffic noise, cars and planes. There is no feeling of community here, however I want to change that gently.
There is a bushland reserve within walking distance, it’s a refuge for birds, insects and small animals and of course there are many trees, bushes and a creeks and some of those trees are like dear friends. I am a 66yrs old woman with one daughter and two grandsons, I thought I was living simply until I read this beautiful treaty. For love of this earth, I am committing to this Earth Treaty today. 🙏🏻🌱 🌏 🌿💚
