Reading the mindful poem, “Stand Still” by David Wagoner. Nature has wisdom to pass down to all who listen. Nature is the place where we can easily dial into the awareness of the present moment, where happiness and peace have always been. Stand still and find what your have been seeking. Thanks for listening... Being Mindful at Sea Level. Music: Faith, Prod. Ryini Beats: https://www.youtube.com/ryini

Stand Still
By David Wagoner

The trees before you and the bushes beside you are not lost.
Wherever you are is a place called Here,
And you must treat it as a powerful stranger,
Must ask permission to know it and be known.
The forest breathes.
Listen.
It answers, I have made this place around you,
If you leave it, you may come back again saying Here.
No two trees are the same to Raven.
No two branches the same to Wren.
If what a tree or a bush does is lost on you,
You are surely lost.
Stand still.
The forest knows
Where you are.
You must let it find you.
