When I went through a time of high anxiety, I moved to my now-home amongst trees and looking at the calm waters of the Walpole Inlet in WA.
Each time I had a worry thought, I would look at the trees, and say to myself - They aren’t bothered - as the swayed in a gentle breeze, held the birds and shed the odd leaf.
It always returned me to a sense of their steadiness and firm groundedness, deep in the earth.
Trees have been, and still are, healing me every day!
Profound and healing revelations on the depth of connection between man/woman and nature. Great you are writing about it Gina. I love your acknowledgement of the other contestants and of Duanne and his insights so true to his ancestors and family. Well done!
I shall now look at all the trees and think that they are treeing, and this shall make me happy.
That just gave me goosebumps. Thank you!

Yes, yes, yes. "What if a ‘tree’ is not a thing, but a process of infinite generosity?" Beautiful, I'm feeling teary all of a sudden.
Humans too, are a process of infinite generosity - that too many in a colonial culture have forgotten.
Yes, yes yes, and thank you for generously making your comment Bella
