sharing breath with evergreens

the gifts of white pine and other evergreens

“We are showered every day with gifts, but they are not meant for us to keep. Their life is in their movement, the inhale and the exhale of our shared breath. Our work and our joy is to pass along the gift and to trust that what we put out into the universe will always come back.” 

— Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass
