REFLECTION QUESTIONAction Track: Social JusticeIndigenous speaker and activist Winona LaDuke says that, "most indigenous ceremonies, if you look to their essence, are about the restoration of balance — they are a reaffirmation of our relationship to creation. That is our intent: to restore, and then to retain balance and honor our part in creation." Why is balance important to sustainability?
Jane Harris 4/10/2019 8:07 AMAll parts are interdependent on one another. Any change to one affects all. We must seek to balance out every change we make. When we don't--which is often--changes will occur on a scale and in a timeframe not in sync with nature. -
