Sorry - I missed upvoting the Freedom Challenge #4 post. I haven't been able to Steem as much lately.
Great response to your own question. You've obviously contemplated this question well. The animals sure have a better relationship with the earth than we do and understand that what they leave behind becomes a part of the earth again. Unfortunately, too much of what we leave behind doesn't just stay but causes destruction.
I also agree about needing to focus on our own happiness. How did we get to this place where neglect our joy so much? - Aimee
I am glad you are finding time to get off of steem and in your world :) It is nice that we find ways to contemplate our happiness and our contributions to the world and share them here on steem!
