โThe story of Braiding Sweetgrass centres around the concept of taking responsibility for life's creation in a harmony of responsibility, reciprocity and respect. It honours the life-giving attributes of generosity and gratitude where we join together in a cyclical movement of give and take.โ

Gratitude, generosity and respect โ!
Give and take.
Circulation.
All the things in nature are together in one place.
Each thing is moved by natureโs pattern.
Signals give direction.
The whole divides in to parts. ๐งฌ
The parts move around and in and out of each other.
Like water flowing in rivers ๐ฆ and oceans ๐ and changing into vapor ๐จ and snow โ๏ธโ๏ธand ice ๐ง.
The water flows in and out of creatures ๐ฟ๏ธ and plants ๐ฑ.
Every part is circulating, round and round. ๐ซโ๏ธ๐ชโ๏ธ๐ฆ ๐งฌ๐ช๏ธ
Things unFold ๐ฑ then enFold ๐ .
Everything in the UNIverse fits ๐งฉ
because each part belongs
to the ONE whole conscious cosmic song ๐ป and dance ๐๐ป.
On my goodness, how beautiful is this - thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed my Braiding Sweetgrass post. It is such a wonderful book, full of treasures and everything you have mentioned here that makes Nature so perfect. I love the idea of nurturing reciprocal relationships with Mother Nature as we grow and will be writing about this next. Enjoy your day and sending so much love to you!
One of my favorite books. I love the way you summarized it here and placed her quotes. Itโs like the perfect thing to bookmark and come back to when we need to. Thank you. โค๏ธ
That's wonderful, I am delighted, Cathy, thank you. I am in awe of Robin's writing, research and stories. It's an honour to pass this beautiful knowledge on to others. Sending my love and gratitude to you for being here. ๐ค
Sue, "Braiding Sweetgrass" always flies out of my mouth when asked about my favorite books. I love both the physical version as well as the audiobook, which is narrated by Robin. It is such a gem of a book and you have done it justice in your post. Thank you! ๐ฟ๐
Thank you, Barbara, it is an honour to share this beautiful work and sacred stories which touched my heart. I agree, it's a gem full of gems, a treasure to be sure. It will be lovely to listen to the audio too! Sending my love. Xx
Thank you, Sue.
