We might enter this world alone, but we don’t live in it, and certaintly can’t love in it, on an island.
To get to your island,
you may have to walk through my forest
or cross her river
or climb his hill.
So keeping my forest fire-free,
and her river waters clean,
and his hill easy to navigate
helps you safely reach your island – and enjoy the journey there all the more.
We are connected, and we must remember that.
