If grief can be a doorway to love, then let us all weep for the world we are breaking apart so we can love it back to wholeness again.

Thank you very much 4woody, epic quote and I knew nothing about Robin Wall Kimmerer until now.
Thank you and we will make wholeness again❤️
If Grief is so powerful ,its no wonder there are those that seek to cause so much of it!!The trick is to get the love without the Grief!Getting the world back whole,is suggesting that it is broken, and therefor repairable.Maybe it is us that are broken and the world will heal itself and us as the cause!!!!!! Just saying

Do you think grief is powerful? Do think love is powerful? Is one more powerful than the other?
I think we have damaged the world a great deal by our activities. Broken seems like an adequate term. I don’t know that we can fix it. I do think we can stop damaging it if we choose to.
I think the world would heal itself if there were no more humans.

T he damage is to ourselves, unfortunately we seem to be blinded by greed , power and selfishness.We are all in this together,perhaps the virus is just reminding us that we are losing it!What ever, the message has to be keep on keeping on,be kind to eachother, respect eachother and show by example what love is.It may help what do we have to lose?! everything!!! stay well take it easy, take it slowly and take it anyway you can!!!

we are blinded... we have damaged so much more than ourselves.
begin to love one another, begin to be kind, begin to respect. we have so much to gain
Love this. x
Thank you, this really is our wake up call, and our opportunity isn't it... and like Narwhat10, I googled, read more, and thought wow... thank you 4woody.
Without grief, challenges, and the discomforts that we will encounter during our life journey we would not have the great appreciation for the amazing blessed times. Into each life some rain will fall, but wait for the rainbow, and the sunshine that will emerge. God bless us all to love, and care for our earthly home. XoXoXo
this is not about us and our grief. it is about the grief we have caused and continue to cause the very world that sustains our existence. We are users... blind and deaf to the silent and empty scars all over our world. Love of our world has the potential and power to return beauty and song to its place.
Nature is returning to glory now that we are in isolation all around us! Animals across the planet are roaming free and embrace the difference. The sky is far less populuted in such a short time, by indusrty being shut down and vechiles off the roads and airlines not flying.We will most likely kearn nothing everyone will rush to return to their old life styles. Love the words and thank you 4woody.
Love Always Wins! 
Hi, the Bible tells us to love one another at all times. Now we all have to be distanced from one another until this is resolved. Love always hopes. (((((hugs)))))
We reach out to one another. Thank you for your kindness.
