eating sunshine
March 31, 2011
Came across a quote today from an essay called Dawn Light by Diane Ackerman:
“Solar energy lights our days and fuels the plants that prey animals eat before they’re eaten by predators. We eat the sunshine stored in those plants and animals, burning it for energy, which we spend to work, cook, make love, play music, pursue games. And we’re so connected to every other life-form on Earth…”
This quote speaks to how interdependent we are on this small planet, how the natural world has it’s own intelligent systems that we are apart of. It benefits all for us to honor that natural balance.
