Finding our Common Unity
by Sheree Cammer
Albany Meeting
Nature has the right to exist. The life in nature is that of God in all. Nature pours out love for us. When we align our energies with the forces of life and wholeness, as one of the council of all beings, we find right relation.
I have been lately focusing the flow of good energy out to unseen many who have lost heart and live under the veil of darkness that George Fox perceived. And, over all, an Ocean of Light.
There is not a moment to lose.
Joyful work in community lies ahead: growing food locally, restoring natural ecosystems that hold onto rainwater and make communities more resilient to drought, floods, heat waves and wildfires. Allowing nature to regenerate, finding our right relation as kin with all life, finding our common unity, living as community where the needs of all are considered. Recognizing the right of nature to exist by learning “enough.” Designing housing on minimal footprints, using minimal resources, and crowding human dwellings.
Globally:
Regeneration is life thriving.
Deserts can become green.
Lifeless soils can teem again with microbial life.
Barren, degraded, eroded landscapes can be regenerated to thriving ecosystems that can host plentiful biodiversity.
Regenerating the fertility of our soils holds the key to growing nutrient-dense food for people, and pasture for animals.
The dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico could disappear as nature heals herself from the runoff of synthetic fertilizers.
Natural landscapes can hold water, streams can run, aquifers can be replenished. Communities can manage their stormwater by maximizing the natural landscapes that can hold onto water.
