Reflection

You turned your back,

And the whole world

Disappeared from view,

Its purpose suddenly faded

In sepia-tinted memories.

You walked away,

And I saw myself alone

Rooted in unforgiving earth,

A diminished spirit,

Resistant to forward motion.

I turned inside

To look beyond illusion

Searching for my connection;

The glow of inner knowing

Reflected back to me in love.

I now stand tall

To view beyond the clearing

A universe possible and true;

The mirror of my heart

No longer shadowed by you.

Do Something

"We are what we do, not what we say." 

- David Suzuki 

The time has come for all of us, as global citizens, to step up our game. We need to be more conscious of the fact that everything we do or don't do affects us and the planet in some way 

- so please, make your actions count!
