  1. The gift has always moved between living things without requiring a theory of generosity to do so — and what loosens in a person who receives something unearned isn't gratitude exactly, but the slow release of a story about the world that was never quite true.

  5. Some traditions hold that being found by something — a plant mid-path, a bird landing closer than usual, an encounter that arrives without your seeking — is not accident but the world reaching toward you, and you, you were able to stay with the contact itself — the brief sense that something met you, and that you were, in that moment, able to meet it.

  10. We run on the same unspoken rules without noticing they're rules: effort in, result out; do enough of the right things, earn the reward.
    Some things move by completely different rules — arriving unbidden, owing nothing to what you've put in or deserved. A different way of reading what's already circulating.

  14. Wir Naturführer/innen erzählen bei unserer Touren Geschichten. Dazu passen die Zeilen , die ich gerade lese:

    „Wir müssen die alten Geschichten ausgraben, die einen Ort mit Leben erfüllen, und neue schaffen, denn wir sind auch Geschichtenschreiber, nicht nur Geschichtenerzähler. Alle Geschichten hängen miteinander zusammen, neue werden aus den Fäden der alten gewoben.

    Aus „geflochtenes Süßgras“ von Robin Wall Kimmerer

  16. Virtual Event - #BookDiscussion of “The #Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World”

    February 12 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

    "Join us for a virtual book discussion of 'The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World,' by #RobinWallKimmerer.

    Free. Registration Required."

    About the author:
    "As Indigenous scientist and author of #BraidingSweetgrass Robin Wall Kimmerer harvests serviceberries alongside the birds, she considers the ethic of reciprocity that lies at the heart of the gift economy. How, she asks, can we learn from #IndigenousWisdom and the plant world to #reimagine what we value most? Our economy is rooted in scarcity, competition, and the hoarding of resources, and we have surrendered our values to a system that actively harms what we love. Meanwhile, the serviceberry’s relationship with the natural world is an embodiment of reciprocity, #interconnectedness, and gratitude. The tree distributes its wealth—its abundance of sweet, juicy berries—to meet the needs of its natural community. And this distribution ensures its own survival. As Kimmerer explains, 'Serviceberries show us another model, one based upon reciprocity, where wealth comes from the quality of your relationships, not from the illusion of self-sufficiency.' "

  21. Human survival has always been interdependent. Other species sustained us materially and culturally — not as resources, but as relations. When we stop to controlling and listen more carefully, a different kind of responsibility becomes visible: responding to what has carried us, rather than assuming exemption from consequence.

  28. After the work of unlearning — loosening certainty, questioning habit, letting old reflexes fall quiet — this arrives as a gentler truth.

    Being lost isn’t the same as being unheld. Some forms of knowing don’t argue or instruct; they orient us slowly, through relationship rather than explanation.
