I wanted to share this beautiful Native American, Ute prayer in honor of Earth Day 2021


Earth, Teach Me - An Ute Prayer

Earth, teach me quiet—as the grasses are still with new light.

Earth, teach me suffering—as old stories suffer with memory

Earth, teach me humility—as blossoms are humble with beginning

Earth, teach me caring—as mothers nurture their young

Earth, teach me courage—as the tree that stands alone.

Earth, teach me limitation---- as the ant that crawls on the ground.

Earth, teach me freedom—as the eagle that soars in the sky

Earth, teach me acceptance—as the leaves that die each fall

Earth, teach me renewal—as the seed that rises in the spring

Earth, teach me to forget myself—as melted snow forgets its life

Earth, teach me to remember kindness—as dry fields weep with rain.


With all my Love,

Chrisitna
