you cut open and create that riverbed
into
which the stream
of your descendants shall
enter and flow.
As we walk along our path
learning, loving discovering, and
beginning to trust our own inner truth,
we feel joy in the knowledge
that we are going in the right direction.
We no longer need to
listen to the voice in our heads
that came from other generations,
others fear and ignorance,
from another time and place.
