Have you ever thought about the fact that everyone has a vital role to play? How each one of us fills an important niche in this world?
That’s exactly what occurred to me as I watched this beautiful video showcasing the dramatic impact of the 1995 reintroduction of wolves into Yellowstone Park after a 70-year absence.
Isn’t it incredible how things changed for the better when the wolves were back on the scene? Birds, foxes, weasels and other animals—even vegetation—now abound in areas that were previously over-grazed by deer. Even the area’s rivers follow a truer course now, thanks to reduced soil erosion. Amazing!
I love the overarching message that our world truly flourishes only when everyone shows up. When we make the small, conscious choices to use our unique strengths and talents fully and wisely, the world will be a better place.

I’m an eco bicker and Norwex user. Trying to reduce car use and buying only charity shop clothes.
That’s awesome! Unfortunately I live in a town that is almost 30 miles to the nearest cost efficient grocery so car usage is a hard one for me. I’m hoping to be able to arrange some clothing swaps in our town to cut back on the clothing situation.
I wonder what we will see change when we all make small conscious choices daily to reduce waste and plastics!?
