Story & Experience
Our Global Earth Exchange here in Cheshire was a lovely experience. A handful of us met and walked out into the fields (threatened “green belt” space outside our village), where we lay painted stones and flowers and read a poem by Robinson Jeffers. There were a couple of generations of people including children and also some non-humans (dogs), so it felt really great to gather together like that.
