I like to be grounded. I'm called to it. Earth is need. Rhythms and rituals that refresh acknowledge limits and aspects of humanity that I cannot take away.

We need. We need rain. We need home. We need a place to be protected. We need someone to physically hug us. Our feet need to touch the ground that we're called to .. walk in the grass, take in the scent. The sound of rustling leaves, it gives me chills.

This is earth. This is what it means to be human. These things we unknowingly wish away in our striving for success and our desire for perfection that demands no rest. But to say I'm human, I'm made of earth and my feet were meant to be grounded here in this - It's not just an acknowledging of limits (I can't fly) its an invitation to beauty (look at the sky from here).
