ENERGY OF THE FOREST AND ORANGUTAN CONNECTIONS by Becky Keller ♥ May 15, 2021 Knocking at the Door of the Forest... Mindful Orangutans... Orangutan Connections...Let's Talk... ENERGY IN THE FOREST AND ORANGUTAN CONNECTIONS Growing up in Oklahoma, I never knew the magnitude of how loud cicadas can be. In Borneo, I found them both overwhelming and comforting at the same time. Until I got used to them. Then they began to add to what seemed like the quiet of the rainforest. The quiet that was also sometimes deafening. Yeah…that doesn’t [...]

It is just a connection. I remember looking into the eyes of my youngest daughter when she [...]
