Deliverance
Deliverance
Survival
Alone in the darkness
predator-prey
no decisions-instincts
intuition independence
Trees won't help you fight the wind
their leaves will not battle the sun for you,
nor will you help them
Revenge is sweet
but not to be shared
An eye for an eye-a tooth for a tooth
but trees and streams have neither eyes nor teeth
There is no mercy in nature, she has no guilt-no conscience,
there is only one side of her story
There is no limitation here
the trees stand tall with courage
and the streams are quick with confidence
Nature does not run from you
nor does she run at you
She can only stand waiting for the battle
