Breathing Egosystems

A tree breaths out into spring budding leaves and in through deeply engaged roots, a respiring inspiring system of organic confluence. Yet each leaf also supports dialogue inhaling carbon and exhaling oxygen. This tree, wiser than me, does not internally debate supremacy of diverse incoming powers, nutrition nurturing opportunities multiculturing Which is most important, producing leaves or producing oxygen? Which is most significant, short term recreation or long term ecosystemic health? Producing leaves producing oxygen producing water producing fertile soil, producing trees... An ecosystemic relationship breathes out into budding spring of organic ego-minded leaves, equally supported by one trunk body inclusively imported through interactive root systems Born of Earth and light and water, Cerebral power and flowing natural nurture Sacred wind penetrating seas of opportunity, Root empowering systems not substituting unrestrained egocentric growth today for healthy eco-maturation tomorrow.
