May 22, 2020 a project of ServiceSpace Make yourself fierce; break in. And then your great transforming will happen to me And my great grief cry will happen to you. - Rainer Maria Rilke - Grieving My Way Into Loving the Planet "In this excerpt from the new anthology 'A Wild Love for the World: Joanna Macy and the Work of Our Times,' journalist Dahr Jamail describes how Macy and her work helped him survive profound war trauma and climate grief. Macy, a scholar and teacher of Buddhism, systems thinking, and deep ecology, is the author of 13 books and a respected voice in movements for peace, justice, and ecology.
