"A gift is different from something you buy, possessed of meaning outside its material boundaries. You never dishonor the gift." Robin Wall Kimmerer A social gift, a gift for compassionate verbal and nonverbal communication, a healing gift, is different from personal economic equity derived from cash investments, Possessed, sometimes haunting, gifts with sacred meaning timelessly transcend secular egocentered anthrosupremacist monopolistic double standards, double gifted/ungifted complex boundaries for understanding who is in and what is left out Of healthy inter-religious interdependent creolizing polycultures societies nation-states restorative justice systems regenerative green peace networks, Never dishonor whole-sum gifts as tools for peace and not weapons against gifts Conscripted used trashed as ballast for Great Straight White Father's unfortunately necessary to conserve equity wars, defend against originally sinful threats, collateral human resource damage of the foot soldiers and consumer also-rans ungifted unpowerful disposable Justified despite thereby losing environmental health and losing active hope for resiliently gifted human peace. It is harder for an unstraight unwhite unmale nonbinary child to emerge from genderphobia feeling sensually gifted neurosystemically cherished wanted as is than it is for a deeply gifted matriarch to sing and dance feeling divinely graced (and not inhumanely marketed) in the transcendent eyes of a God-needled gatekeeper. A wounded gift is different from some Thing we try to buy because multicultural integrity is too high a democratic healthy price for Patriarchal Corporate RedRight Capitalists to stop hoarding Earth's Cooperative BountyCircled multiculturally valued polyculturally healthy climate gifts. A sacred Blue/Green non-binary child gift asks something of us not quite so RightRed dominant mishandling underhanding healthier non-zero swelling sway toward bicamerally balancing intelligence Taoistic Zeroistic WinWin Game Theoretic and Organic Systems Therapeutic nonviolently gifted communicators, green EarthTribe full-sensory educators, ecofeminist theologians, poetically prophetic ecologians, compassionately multicultural proficient as not not gifted Positive You Tipping straight up as down dipolar gift appointed Me/SystemicWe therapeutic co-empathic cultural/religious secular/sacred individual/individuating universal/unitarian dipolar resonance PolyCultural EarthJustice resilience gifts have always 1/0 binary DNA spiraled through YangStrength/YintegralFlow Sun enlightening/Earth empowering, LeftGreen/RightBlue seasoned red sky boundary reasons for morning mourning warning while red sky at night dimly follows, sailor's gifted delight East yintegrally dawns on each cooperative living system throughout Her resilient emergence to this YangNow/YinHere Speaking/Deep Listening bipartisan healing opportunity grabbed before final dusk To reconnect and reverse monoculturing powers spoken in Yang v Yin competitive sexualized dissonance transposed to sensory LeftGreen/RightRed ultraviolet neurosensory confluence Panentheistic synergetic goddess senses for regenerative religious gifts and resonantly co-empathic sensory-sexual win/win shifts communed through health-systemic trust in cooperative pay back Earth forward thriving democracy Built developed gifted in cooperative win/win ownership alternative economies ecologies wherein those thriving with the most nutritional value in autumn's harvest Earth-gift season are those most generously delighted to share next spring's seeds and nuts, Roots and winter's roosting eggs as widely gifted and deeply co-invested as possible To reassure each gifted Other that our intended wealthy climate and personal ego healthcare chances are way win/win way better together than win/lose ungifted unwanted unlovely drifting apart Toward Lose/Lose nihilism, ecopolitical genocide, militantly RedRight fascist dominant Whole EarthSystemic ecocide.
