“The forest makes your heart gentle, You become one with it … No place for greed or anger there.” Pha Pachak
Are We Listening? Do winds come to die, or the ocean exhaust itself upon the shore, are trees silent before the storms of humanity, does grass wither? You might think it if you took no time to stop and listen, for trees speak in silences and grass always regenerates, while oceans shout in their return, winds take time to rest and even the soil speaks if we would but listen.
