The Wisdom Tree says:
“It’s vital to remember, like falling embers
souls will float through your life.
Most become ash;
some become flame;
but for a very few — fires rage.
Brought with desire,
an untamable ire,
or hearty inspire —
be grateful for any moment afire.
It is the sea that shapes the shore,
the clouds that clothe the sun,
and the trees that embrace the hillside.
The past is always beautified;
the future is made grand,
but the moment is what’s in your hands.
In solitude or company,
embrace the present wholeheartedly.
Honor reality,
let go of the past,
disregard the future —
and you will grow in darkness or light.”
But what do I know?
Go ahead, ask the tree for yourself.
