More than ever, we must affirm our kinship with all life—with all other humans, all other life forms, with the living being that is our home planet. The illusion that we are separate is profoundly dangerous and leads us to do harm to ourselves, to our collective family of kin of every kind, to our earth mother, to the very life force that allows us to be here.
