The day before yesterday, I stared up into the mountains, a fire had been raging there for weeks to come and I had felt it due time for some rain to arrive and stop the destruction. Yes I know that with fire brings rebirth, but what about with the things that have not yet seen their end? Human's lives were at stake here, not to mention that the smoke and ash had caused the health services to advice people to stay in their homes. So one smoky day while the sun was just above the silhouetted mountain tops I went by our largest tree and brought my staff with me. As I looked to the mountain tops I closed my eyes and felt the pain and I felt the renewal, but I could not get the fear out of my mind. So I started to hum a song, a song not known by many into the breeze. As I went back into my own tongue I pleaded with the Wind, to bring the clouds, to bring the rain, and to stop the flame, let the earth feel no more toil but the fruits of rebirth that it undoubtebly has sowed. I closed my eyes and as I did something amazing happened, a power seemed to come over me something as I have not yet felt before, something so incredible that I could not help but burst out in tearful happiness. I grabbed some dirt inside of my hand and put it up into the wind and just as I did, the wind violently blew and the dirt went with it. As if some force accepted my plee. It is two days later and the fire has finally gone down. The air is breathable and all I can say is that the elements heard me that day, and I feel that we are finally at peace...
