Micaela is our kitty, the great guardian of the house, a member of the Network; she enjoys drinking water in the rainwater harvesting pond. Each time, she takes some time to look at her reflection in the water mirror and with her little hands she caresses it with delicacy.
Micaela with her attention, as well as many other little animals, teach us to value the goodness of nature, to enjoy it, but above all to be grateful and to treat it with affection.
It is a call to humanity and especially to the librarian family to stop our careers and look at ourselves in the mirror, in the mirror of nature: to know what we are involved in, what we are doing with so many gifts that Mother Earth gives us and if we are contributing to take care of her and protect her.
May it also motivate us to look in the mirrors of our libraries, may we continue to read nature and may our books be the mirrors that invite us to reflection and responsible action.
