Thanks to Lisa for sharing her personal moment reconnecting with nature
with us too.
I think one way to make nature a tangible and important presence in your
life that is also a daily ritual is organic gardening. I know that this is
not possible for everyone, but even if it is just a tomato plant on a
balcony, not only are you feeding yourself a little bit, you are
following the cycles of nature and reconnecting to your little piece of
earth (potting soil and plant) on a daily basis. Your daily ritual of
watering and feeding the plant(s) could be as elaborate or simple as you
want it to be.
Just a thought.

It's all about the root of the word. -- man. We are not men. Therefore a
lot of women/womyn prefere to not use men or man and instead use womon or
womyn. There are a lot of other variations as well. It is along the same
lines as changing the title chairman to chair.
I am not suggesting that womyn are not human but I am suggesting that womyn
are not the adjuct of men, nor are we subordinate, nor are we less
important.
I hope this clears up any confusion you may have.
Kylie.
