“Circular rhythms define our paths on this spinning globe.
Roots weave together uniting family trees and blurring differences.

Roots, like DNA, provide prescient knowledge and warning signs. They nourish and sustain us in our need to expand but to belong. Lichen provides trees with direction. Moss protects the roots. Pine needles and leaves are soft beds. Rough
bark protects inner sweetness that runs clear. Trees stand and observe leaving rings to be read. Sacred ground sustains tap roots nourished by the stacked bones of ancestors. Our circular paths repeat.”
