This weekly sharing is challenging me in so ma y ways. I realize I need to practice the many ways of relating to human and our nonhuman partners sharing their environment with us. There is so much to !earn, assimilate and explore in our relationships and in this journey grow more sensitive with a!l that is a part of of our living and breathing.

From the time I was a child I sought to connect with all nonhuman life. I had a special hollow oak tree that was my home, I went there as often as I could to hear the birds, watch the cattle, listen to the wind as it brought the Lea ed together in a chorus sometimes gentle sometimes fierce. Always the oak sheltered me in it's cavernous trunk, even heavy rain barely broke through its great canopy, and I could remain there listening to its music.

There is still a longing in me to communicate more clearly with the wind, rain, trees, birds, all of nature but I seem unable. I know they reach out but I seem unable to decipher their messages. I would appreciate guidance from any readers who sojourn on the same path seeking to enhance their connection with all that is. CAT
