The literal story told in the short video below about feeding each other can also be viewed as an allegorical tale relating to the human need for connection and secure attachment. Our fears about not getting important emotional needs met often churns up fear and anger, frequently followed by attack and withdrawal - but underneath all of that is the longing for support and connection and the reality of interdependence. When we learn how to access and express our legitimate vulnerability needs and longings clearly, rather than resorting to the defensive patterns of attack and withdrawal, we have a powerful tool for actually feeding ourselves, our families, and our communities the kind of nourishment needed for vibrant living, not just mere subsistence surviving.
