Enjoy your Entanglements

One of the major problems we face as a society is working out how to stop trying to untangle ourselves, and learn how to live well, even enjoy, our precarious, sometimes troublesome, occasionally delicious entanglements.

Modernity has taught us that entanglements are bad, it trains us to sort out, to categorising, to put into boxes, to create borders and boundaries, to put things in their right place.....

The mentally ill go to the asylum
The poor go to the ghetto
Kings and Queens go to their palaces
Nature is a resource for humans to exploit
People go to the office, factory, or warehouse

But what if we embraced our entanglements, what if we enjoyed being entangled with nature rather than being above it, separate from it?

What if we enjoyed our hybridity with each other, and stopped pretending to be pure and separate races.....

Sometimes entanglements need loosening for sure; when an entanglement ties us in knots it may require attention...but don’t act without asking how the knot serves us, how it serves others -human and non-human- and you may find that the knot and the entanglement are telling you much more than you bargained for…
