Answers To All Questions
I am lost in a sea of torment and disbelief,
My life seems so worthless right now,
For I am helpless to help you when you need me most.
Listen to the river, for it travels far.
Listen to the moon, for it looks down on us.
Listen to the wind, refreshing all life.
Sounds that fill our innermost being.
If a bluebird sings, do you know what he says?
Nature in all her glory, tells all that is, without saying anything.
Why don’t we listen?
What is our purpose?
We live each day without thinking?
Have you ever listened to a tree? He says so much.
He longs for your touch and your understanding.
Have you ever talked to your dog?
They will sit there for hours listening to you.
They will give you unconditional love.
Though they don’t understand your words,
They understand what you are saying.
They know when you need attention,
They know when you are sad.
Given the chance all of nature will listen to you,
And help you thru your day, your life.
They have all the answers,
If we could, if we would, just understand.
Have you ever wondered how animals know what the others are thinking?
The vibrations a whale makes, that can be heard for thousands of miles,
or the sounds of the elephant, so low we cannot even hear them, yet the others
know what is being said.
All we have to do is leave our bodies and join nature,
Then we will know everything there is to know,
We can cure our bodies of any sickness.
We have the power, it can be done,
Any hour under the sun.
Reach into your heart, deeper than ever before,
For there, as in nature is the answers we seek,
To open the door.
