<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;">At a time when words are offering refuge, we’ve noticed many people turning to Wendell Berry’s poem, “<a href="https://engage.onbeing.org/r?u=8PJfsSHPCCkfAn6dgMO60VRNLNj8MyrVIH5RzLvWq8KwIWBD6TstKvwXYmZ5ayDdAwzGi2GHj9GAWaVS7yXN7g&e=d75c5474de340cd212c70e06a05f8885&utm_source=onbeing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20200418_the_pause&n=2" style="color: rgb(63, 153, 207);">The
Peace of Wild Things</a>,” on onbeing.org:</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;">“When despair for the world grows in me<br>
and I wake in the night at the least sound<br>
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,<br>
I go and lie down where the wood drake<br>
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.<br>
I come into the peace of wild things ..”</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;">Berry writes with such intimacy and particularity about his connection with wilderness. As the 50th anniversary of Earth Day approaches next week, we’re delving into his writing — as well as theologian and conservationist Ellen
Davis’s <a href="https://engage.onbeing.org/r?u=jUFwuJg24rmcCYuM7hVBcbvnpOYQ_qZxBefoSXsyt1CBNGYNtVYq3bXEPKQnojBt&e=d75c5474de340cd212c70e06a05f8885&utm_source=onbeing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20200418_the_pause&n=3" style="color: rgb(63, 153, 207);">
agrarian reading of the Bible</a> — for their poetic perspectives on <a href="https://engage.onbeing.org/r?u=8PJfsSHPCCkfAn6dgMO60UmBPiZkAPnYhs21oisUZnxNb7V-JpJ7xFRqqiwPxJEodGlOlOMHz0-fsF2vmMjTPLFmtzVxyWGHbMqD4P89ymZjGopHUTOFP_lIQL-sXRks&e=d75c5474de340cd212c70e06a05f8885&utm_source=onbeing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20200418_the_pause&n=4" style="color: rgb(63, 153, 207);">
being in relationship with the natural world</a>. For Davis, connecting to land and all that’s living can guide our connection to one another. "We are a part of an intricate web of physical relations which are, at the same time, moral relations,” she says.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;">But being in relationship with the world requires us to recognize a kind of constant and inexorable loss, whether because of climate change or mass extinction or gentrification. Many people shy away from it. Ecological philosopher
<a href="https://engage.onbeing.org/r?u=8PJfsSHPCCkfAn6dgMO60Wa-J3sbyrEdYW8BueR8jMXWAv62RbjH4-pvmUYrhPQK6GrhphoAog47iQ6DSEnGzmf47s1vRpTsjdvXC698VLc&e=d75c5474de340cd212c70e06a05f8885&utm_source=onbeing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20200418_the_pause&n=5" style="color: rgb(63, 153, 207);">
Joanna Macy</a> understands: “Our difficulty in looking at what we’re doing to our world stems not from callous indifference or ignorance so much as it stems from fear of pain,” she says.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;">But what might come of turning toward this grief, of staying curious about it? Here again Macy offers some guidance: “If we can be fearless, to be with our pain,” she says, “it turns ... to reveal its other face, and the other
face of our pain for the world is our love for the world, our absolutely inseparable connectedness with all life.” For some, like writer
<a href="https://engage.onbeing.org/r?u=8PJfsSHPCCkfAn6dgMO60WrmWrYP7114PBcOI54I3mhuKJNiJDcMRySSLqI2rhv2_XefaxBqdVrhu1s8wYFPqls_xP4Nfp6sD8plXVVvd4zohMT1nYxpBaMFcYbJMJT5&e=d75c5474de340cd212c70e06a05f8885&utm_source=onbeing&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20200418_the_pause&n=6" style="color: rgb(63, 153, 207);">
Terry Tempest Williams</a>, this connection and love for the world is a call to act in its interest. “The other side of that love and loss is that empathy rooted in action,” she says. “I think it’s about making commitments to do the real work, the hard work,
because ultimately that’s where I have found the most joy.”</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;">This year, on Earth Day, exploring our connection to the natural world may require us to turn toward grief. But doing so will also allow us to look past it, with renewed focus on all that’s left to act upon.</p>
