Imagine before you a mountain made of stone. The weather of time has smoothed the rocks. The sun dances gleefully over the crevices of stone sticking out. Begin to climb the mountain. Feel the strain of the ascension. Fear is there to ask you to sit down. Do not sit down. Continue the climb. Feel the wind brush against your face encouraging you to breathe and become one with it. You reach the top of the mountain. The Sun is playing on your shoulders. As you look out, you see the world. You see each and every cycle of life as it changes. Think about how the mountain is a witness to this. The mountain is wise as it listens to Mother Earth change. The mountain stands firm as a mountain. The mountain radiates patience as it forms into itself. As you stand atop this mountain, think of the patience of the ascension. Think of your determination. We do not stand on top of the mountain for the world to see us, but we stand on top of the mountain to see the world. Think of an intention. Take a pen, knife, or marker & write it on a stone. Lay that intention at the top of the mountain.

Begin the descent. Climb down the mountain. Feel the easiness of your return. Open your eyes. Think of your intention. Let’s return there.
