- What kind of person do I want to be going forward? What will make me an ancestor worth descending from?

- Anything I do now is for a time beyond my own, for my children and their children.

- Think in geologic time. No matter what is done to the planet in our lifetime, (which may be foreshortened), life will prevail; not life as we know it, but life nonetheless. No one is powerful enough to stop that.

- Learn the language of the plants like never before. Re-immerse, become fluent again, listen.

- Lessons in resilience abound; indigenous peoples have been preservation artists for centuries.
