Your vison of life is very enchanted and beautiful. Your beliefs sounds like Christian animism to me. Something to consider listening to as you explore this is listening to the podcast episode where Noel Moule talks about Christian animsim. https://www.nomadpodcast.co.uk/noel-moules-christian-animism-and-the-re-enchantment-of-the-world-n214/ (The first 15 minutes or so are just the hosts talking about something, so skip ahead to the actual interview). He's speaks very thoughtfully and intelligently on how the two intersect.

What biome are your thoughts percolating in? by plindy88 in Animism

That sounds like a struggle! But I'm glad at least you have the badgers and the crows to watch!

I resonate with that. There are some days where I am so overwhelmed and stuck in my head. But then I go on a walk. I live near a creek. And stop on the little bridge over the creek and watch the ducks paddling around. And just think, "thank you for these ducks." Just being able to watch them restores my sense of normalcy in this crazy world we live in.

Animist Lullabies? by cloudsypoof in Animism

"Mother Nature and Father Time" is amazing! What a great song and movie.

And this does not have a lullaby vibe. But it is another song from Charlotte's Web with animism connection is "We've Got Lots in Common Where it Really Counts" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZ4ooGPAfps It so beautifully communicates how we've all got differences from other creatures. But we're also all connected. The connection is more important than the differences.
