Grounded

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.

(Khalil Gibran)





Be grounded,


on a moving ground,


that reflects your movable nature;


otherwise,


you won't grow;


otherwise,


you won't move.



Be grounded,


in such a way,


that your roots are deep and flexible,


connected with all your relations,


irrespective of where you are.



Be grounded,


and connected,


in mind and spirit with your Tribe.


You know who they are.



Be grounded,


to mother Earth,


connected through our belly button,

as if the umbilical cord remained.



Such connections might have been severed, but never fade.


We all maintain our connection with mother, even if we do not recognise it.



Be grounded,


to the elements,


they are all that is in this plane.


They are within you and you are they.



Be grounded,


to the Sun, the Moon and the Stars,


they will remind you to aim high, and


that you are not from this world.



Be grounded,


to the Sky,


letting yourself be guided on the direction you must take,


listening to the sound of the wind.



Be grounded,


to the Oceans, the Seas, the Rivers, the Lakes, the Wells,


to flow, adjust, adapt, stay still,


while moving all the time.



Be grounded,


to the Trees, Plants, Fungi, Micelium,


to remain connected,


to communicate with nature.



Be grounded,


to the Eternal Flame of Life,


light your internal flame,


burn until you are nothing but ashes.
