Note on Braiding Sweetgrass via Robin Wall Kimmerer
The essence of the gift is that it creates a set of relationships. The currency of a gift economy is, at its root, reciprocity. In Western thinking, private land is understood to be a “bundle of rights,” whereas in a gift economy property has a “bundle of responsibilities” attached.
Our things are gifts and we should value/treat them as such.
