My Healing Justice Interview

I was interviewing our Food Justice Coordinator for Edible Landscape Projects nurturing democratic peaceful outcome projections and trend analysis, none of which would competitively sell papers. She asked most of my questions. I responded, as usual with her, writing my tension-filled marketable consumer-driven and therefore possibly publishable responses. She replies to my Why are Edible Landscapes a nutritional health and justice priority? With a question How are youir own health ingested landscapes a therapeutic priority for you and your Tribe? So I write down some notes about how restoring nutritional justice deserves more of my personal investment because healthy grace and graceful beauty are, and have always been, democratizing cooperative vocations multi-generations of EarthTribes have, and still do, give to ourselves going way back to cave drawings and rock gardens, fragrance and sounds of oceans and sweetgrass meadows, shrines to everyday sacred healthcare warriors and peace-makers and singers and liturgical rain dancers for cooperative multi-regenerational thirsty and hungry receivers. Gifts of perfect nutrition absorbed through mouths worshiping at sacred **** but also eyes and noses and ears inhaling grace-filled birdsong forests. I read this back to her and asked if this fits with what she intended to say about family and community priorities for restoring edible, and graceful, landscape projects. She says Obviously so. Nutrition is Grace is love, she reminds us, but actively so obviously so. Not just a passive yin potential power! she yangs, Love activates a graceful racing horse toward nutritional nurturing climates feeding long-term organically full life-- PositivEnergy Democracy grace racing pro-active natural/spiritual Love. We agreed to meet again for another cooperatively unmarketable interview away from our competing racetracks-- a garden venue, or maybe an organic farm, an outdoor reforesting classroom nutritionally re-opened for our self-organizing PositivEnergy Cooperative's inside incubating resilience, Reweaving sacred health with secular co-invested wealth. On my way out I noticed a notice for cooperative healthcare managers and owners: 1. Inflicting market competitions does not grow affective or effective health cooperations. 2. Punishing revenge against lesser creatures and their faith systems is not therapeutically healthy for growing higher democratic creatures. 3. Harvesting and commercializing Saints does not grow Future multicultural Raptures. 4. A tolerated WinLose truce is not proactive WinWin Grace. 5. Red RightWing apartheid is not Green LeftWing Peace.
