I encourage us to listen to and feel the rhythms and songs of the trees, plants, winds, flames, waters, creatures, and other living beings. Let us offer our songs in reciprocal delight and deep appreciation that we sustain each other. Knowing our collective voices have the power to transform energies within and around us in beneficial ways. In our singing, may we activate and assist in restoring harmonious balance for our interdependent relations.</blockquote><blockquote><strong>Sarah Luchs </strong>resides in Columbus, Ohio.
