We wonder at the illness, physical and mental, more pervasive now than 100 years ago. Symbiosis with our natural world. Is it any wonder we are poisoned as much as we poison our Earth? We fill her waters with fertilizer, pesticides, petrochemicals and industrial waste. We cut down her forests and destroy indigenous life, plant and animal. We tear open her mountains to mine what we think we need.
Some children use up their mothers. The selfish ones. Others respect them and care for them.
