Clarissa Pinkola Estés: The Magnitude

Some say we are little,

minute, insignificant.

Yet the Mountain says to us, Speak for me.

The Eagle, the Elephant say, Speak for us.

The Children, the Water, the Crops, Speak for me.

In a world some have made too small,

we are pitiful creatures at the mercy

of merciless Nature.

But in the World Between Worlds

where True Self speaks and resides:

We are the Perpetual Brides and Grooms

gladly married to all of Nature and the Stars.

******

Don't forget. Legacy is merely gratitude to have found 

aspects of life worth living and preserving ...

and to be able to build and leave a signal fire for the Future beings 

who are already on their way to Here. To us. 

The souls of the future are already on their way to Here.
