Poison & Antidote Lesson - Mother Nature
I was walking barefoot in a grassy field today, as you do, and found myself stung by some nettles. Upon realising, I started to scratch.
Quickly, my walking partner jumped to where I was bent, picked some leaves from the plant neighbouring the offender and told me to rub them on the sting. The red and itch went away immediately, and haven’t returned.

A small story, and not just the obvious one about a city gal in the country with no scouting experience - hey, I even planted some basil in the garden today! - for me it holds a lovely lesson: in Nature the antidote/solution grows and lives very close to the poison.
Perhaps the solution or answer you are looking for is closer than you think…?
