In a beautiful three-way artistic collaboration, the amazing Sustainable Human has created an achingly emotional music video for Michael Brunnock’s song “A Blessing for Anyone” based on a poem I wrote of the same name. I’m so grateful to everyone who made this possible, and I’m so thrilled to share it here. I really hope to see this kind of free and easy online collaboration between artists become more common in the future. Let the art flow! Let’s wrest culture from the artless middlemen and forge a new and healthy path for ourselves.
Side note, this video comes with a Kleenex warning. The first time I watched it, it made me ugly cry. The footage of the woman rescuing a koala from the bushfires fair near destroyed me. When Dawn and Chris Agnos from Sustainable Human decided at the last minute to go with the headline “This Song Was Made To Heal You”, all I could think was “It sure was!”
Of course your mileage may vary, but just in case, don’t watch this on your bus ride home from work unless you’re comfortable with public displays of emotion, in which case I love you even more.
If you’re on Facebook, Sustainable Human also has a great version here with subtitles which will share better on that platform than the YouTube version. Thanks for watching, and, may the earth feel your love.

I’ve been reading Caitlin for awhile now, through her pieces posted on ICH (Information Clearing House); a fine writer and now, as we can see, also a very fine poet & lyricist.
Wonderful song, now viewed close to a dozen times… not counting the numbers but the tissue box gets lowered each time I watch… the core message is beautifully simple… love the earth, love one another, take care of each other and yourselves on this little planet that we’re gifted to share with other myriad life forms within the depths of space, cradled in our now barely-understood Einsteinian space-time matrix amid the incomprehensible vastness of our known universe, forced by dint of the inherent madness of our species to struggle with the illusionary framework of the I-Me-Mine psychic complex that so persistently screens us from the reality of our situation.
Blessings, Caitlin, all strength to your work.
Doesn’t ANYONE Remember Here the scenario portrait in ONE of the 1960’s “James Bond Movies = LIVE and Let DIE”???
In that movie British agents, portrait BLACK raced people as being Their “Mortal Enemy” (Even utilizing “Coons” to assist them!)
In that movie WHITE people viewed BLACK people as THEIR “Mortal Enemy”…Ask yourself, WHY???
When what is called HIS-Story, in FACT proves Otherwise…That the Ancient White had to LEARN…Everything they now control FROM the Ancient BLACK “Beings” (Kemet/Egypt) who ARE the REAL ORIGINAL CREATORS OF CIVILIZATION ON THIS PLANET???
You say Here in this article “May LIFE treat YOU as You TREAT Life”???
HOW does that work in a race of people believing in WHITE SUPREMACY??? who are CURRENTLY trying to Exterminate Their ORIGINAL “Teachers”…Who ARE the REAL “Human-Beings” on this planet.
Its a FACT that Whites Created ALL the Viruses that have Ever plagued this planet…in a VAIN attempt to “RedeffineGod ” via AL (Artificial Intelligence)
I suggest those who wish to ALIGN themselves with the “Divine-Source” by a copy of a book entitled: “The ISIS Papers, The Keys to the Colors…by Dr. Frances Cress Welsing…IF you care to survive WHATS about to happen…VERY SOON.
I reacted the same way watching Baraka, although much longer.
Just beautiful!
That was beautiful.
Very nice…maybe great. sure a great idea.
good job. by all.
Thanks for everything you are doing.
Much better imagery than the last video with the musician’s angst face.

I have listened to this song over and over since Caitlin posted it. So powerful. This video makes it even more poignant
A video that goes with it.

good work. great work. for everyone. kudos
Nature, in all Her Beauty, is my Mother
She provides green pastures, for my rest
She provides still waters, to restore my soul
She provides the paths, that I am to follow
When I walk through a valley in the shadow of death
I will fear no evil, for She is with me
Her mighty trees and gentle fields
They comfort me
She prepares a garden, to provide my food
In the presence of my enemies
She anoints my head with Truth
My appreciation for Her Kindness overflows
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life
And I will dwell
In the Beauty of Nature forever
