This is beautiful, @frugallady! You know, what you said about the talents: looking at us human creatures, I feel this is exactly what our collective talent is supposed to be: stewardship of the earth on a familiar scale. That is what "work" is supposed to be (not turning screws in a factory, or looking at a screen in an office). That's where our creativity lies, that's where we find joy, that's what we need to bring out, so it can bring out the best in us. And THAT is what the world needs to see. So thank you for writing this amazing post.
