HelenaLives in Patagonië The most southern conifer. Elastic but breakable, sensitive, a bitter chemical taste.  I have a sense of a bonfire, woodfire, also a big forest fire where people are helping each other to calm it.  Fire is necessary but too much is a disaster.  A gathering. Tribe. There has to be enough community to live, or to survive.  There has to be balance.  When there is a disaster, no balance, you can’t survive on your own. After the disaster you need each other to recover, to rebuild to revive, re…..  Bearing the load together makes it doable, lighter. Learning together, how to live. Then it is relaxed, open, friendly.  A friendly community that protects each other against the disasters of nature. Content together. Flexible through ‘togetherness’. If one of the group is weak or stretched out, the others will move, the pattern changes but the whole is still one, still a healthy community, still a flexible and strong togetherness. The wisdom of movement. No blaming. Compassion. No hard defense, no shield is necessary. The hardships are of a natural kind. Like a freezing cold winter, cold weather, or hunger. Searching berries together out of wisdom, not controlling, but out of knowing about the dangers from nature that might happen to you. So never go alone, at least with two, better with multiple. The enemy is the hardship of nature.
