When we speak of environment we talk of ourselves when we talk of Mother Earth we speak of Father Ocean when we talk of the oceans the rivers and the sea we speak about our own living waters within us and our blood when we speak about the land we speak about our bodies, our feet our wholeness. our hands when we speak about the universe the clouds and the sky we speak about our thoughts our dreams, our being when we speak about the sun we speak about the light and warmth of life the golden cup from which we all sip and which, if we block it out or destroy the vital shield, we ensure that, equally, as we now live we will as equally, all die when we attack and exploit one we attack and exploit ourselves and all creation. Kevin Gilbert (Bogong, 1997). |
