This was brilliant. (At least I thought it was after I looked up the definitions of half a dozen words. Inadequate mind, feeble education.) Wondering what inspired you to write it in a quick draft.

So glad you enjoyed it! I get tired of the “we need new stories” dialogue and so perhaps that was my button. Haha!

We used to live in deep connection with Earth, and understood what true reciprocity looked like. It’s one of the biggest questions of our time: can we remember the old stories to bring back the balance?

Thank you for articulating this so well.

Wise words.... I keep hearing the same about stories, but in my mind it's not really "new" stories we are looking for, but rather a return to the old stories which are new to a civilization so enmeshed in the machine that it now confuses it with real life.
