Gnomean Proverbs Vol.2?
Should there ever big a 2nd edition… I present for your consideration:
To be small is to be close to the earth.
To be close to the earth is to hear its secrets.
And to hear its secrets is to realise that size has never mattered to the forest.
A pebble can redirect a river.
A seed can split stone.
A tiny being can carry a mighty purpose.
Walk gently, but never doubt your strength.
Every being carries a lantern, some bright, some dim, some flickering like a candle in a pub on a windy night.
Your lantern is your truth.
Your identity.
Your spark.
Let it shine without apology.
Let it shine without comparison.
Let it shine even when you’re tired.

Thank you for the sharing! I appreciate the poetic nature of the writing and the lovely imagery. Perhaps the start of a book of writings with the Principles in mind: this writing incorporates many of our Principles. 😍
