“…as we relate to the body, so we relate to the world.”
– Philip Shepherd, New Self, New World
A favorite quote from New Self, New World requested by Jodi.
Please note: Beautiful Tree was not set afire for this post. Sadly, Tree had been carved-up and killed for pleasure and power by others. Heartbreaking, truly.
The Guardian newspaper published some photos showing the extraordinary extent of our impact on the world.

It looks like murder to me. Lots of feeling in this. Thanks for sharing it. I can’t describe to you the feelings I have for trees. I think we may be on the same wavelength, though. Hugs to you.
