Wendell Berry emphasizes in his poems to care for the land

The land where we live on for a certain amount of time

It is something being borrowed to us, he sees it almost as an obligation to care for it

It can be a life lesson to be more responsible.


He cares a lot of caring for each other and to even love our enemies

To forgive so they can be free of you, and you of them

The importance of staying away from distractions

Staying away from screens and to connect with nature instead.


Whatever the others say or think shouldn’t matter to us

It shouldn’t stop us from doing things that we enjoy

Since everyone on this land live’s life the way they want.

Rejecting or leaving the modernized society behind

to favor a more sustainable and meaningful way of life.
