Great explanation of the importance of emphasizing stewardship of land over ownership. I think about the distinction a lot when it comes to other financial resources as well, e.g. a shift in mindset away from "my money" to "the money over which I have stewardship." I can think of a few prominent business leaders who would make different decisions if they had a stewardship mindset!
Great post. As I understand it stewardship of land has also been a more common idea in Europe. I think part of the origin of this weird way of thinking here may have been the odd way that land was considered a material asset by early colonizers. Nothing we can't get over though. And yes taking the cue from indigenous thinking about what land is could be key.
