BOOK II

THE CONDITIONS
OF HUMAN
FLOURISHING

Life flourishes where the conditions for flourishing are cultivated.

Land · Water · Soil · Belonging · Trust

Land is living infrastructure. Water teaches that everything downstream depends on what happens upstream. Soil is living infrastructure. Belonging connects people. Trust is demonstrated, not declared.

Education expands responsibility. Community is cultivated long before it is tested.

EVERYTHING
IS
CONNECTED.

The work of stewardship begins by recognizing relationships that already exist.
