Drink where your horse drinks;
a horse knows no path to poisoned waters.
Rest where the cat finds peace, for its slumber speaks of safety.
Take the fruit touched by a worm; it dares where others would not.
Gather mushrooms caressed by insects; they carry nature’s quiet approval.
Plant trees where the mole digs; its wisdom is rooted in the earth.
Dig where birds take refuge from the sun; they find the sanctuary unseen.
Rise and rest with the rhythm of the birds, and the golden grains of life will be yours.
Eat greens; their essence will gift you strength, the endurance of forests, and a heart that beats like wild rivers.
Lift your eyes to the skies, speak less, and let silence fill your heart.
In that stillness, your soul will find calm, and your life will wear the robes of peace.
