The earth may heal as we permit our rivers and streams, the guts and qi of the planet's surface, to flow once again. Like with humans, blocked veins and arteries can result in diminished function.  Running water moves the energy; breaking rapids and thundering waterfalls refresh the air. Clean air fills our lungs. Life is less stagnant. Fish and small plants and boats bearing goods are transported. Water flows across political boundaries for all to drink. This desire for healthy rivers recurs  in my mind.
