Attend now to the tender kindness you receive from The Mother, from the earth, from the soil. The Mother feeds you. She protects you. She nurtures you. Your body, and every cell, every molecule, every atom in it, was born of the earth. You are one with with The Mother. You can never be anything She is not.
The food that enters your body is provided by Her. Her cells are your cells. The water pumping through your veins is the same water that courses through Her rivers. The air you draw in and exhale out, with each and every breath, is the same air that blows across Her open prairies, over Her highest mountains, and through Her vast wild forests.
You are Nature. And Nature is you. You are indigenous to this planet. It is your home. And Nature is indeed your mother.
As a mother sacrifices for her young, The Mother offers her body to feed you and sustain you. Though she’s exhausted and weary, she will give you every last ounce of Her energy. Even when you consume without thought or gratitude, the Mother will continue to attend to your every need, want, wish, and desire.
In truth, she will never withhold her bounty. But Her vast supply of resources is being gradually depleted. Even now, her soil, once teeming with life, like vibrant, shiny tresses of rich, loamy hair, has become dull and lifeless. Her water, once crystalline and pure, is clouded. Her air, once clear and pristine, is choked.
Attend now to your Mother and the kindness she offers. Respond to her kindness by returning to the wild places in your heart and in your world. Restore union with that part of you that knows kinship with every plant, animal and life form on the planet. Commune with the earth, connect with the soil. Come home to the Mother, dear soul. Come home to the One whose body sustains you.
