"Help! Help," cried the woman on the mountain. "I'm being oppressed!"

After a pause, the mountain replied, "Well, quit it then!"
 

If one listens carefully,
The mountain will speak.

It is but a whisper,
Yet as loud as cannon fire.

Cherish deep roots--
They ground you
To that which is most important.

Sway in wind and gale--
No matter how strong,
The winds do move on.

Eat meals in a sun beam.
Revel in the miracle
That binds us all together.

Tread lightly with sure feet.
Ground yourself with every step;
Feel your spirit connect with life!

Remain connected to your neighbors.
This is your moral imperative--
They are your family.

Savor every breath.
Your next will be altogether new.

Claim your power--
it is theirs only if you give it away.
