We can hear it in water, in wood,
and even in stone.
Powerful truth!!!
I just finished the Water is Life Walk 2011 (June 12 – 21, 2011); carrying the Glacier water from Ti’Swaq (Mt Rainier) too Bus-chut-whut (place of the black bear) now called Capital Lake. On day five it was raining and I was to walk 15 miles...I walked 19 and did not want to stop...everything was talking and I was listening.
"As I walked in the rain, a light rain but not a mist. I focused on the sound of the drops drumming on my head. Then I began to hear the sound of the drops on the pavement, that sound was so harsh. I moved off the road to walk on Unci Maka. I returned my focus to the sound of the drops on my head...then I began to reach out and pick up the symphony of tones as the drops fell upon all that surrounded me. I had never heard the difference in to sound of rain drops as they fall. Each drop creates a different tone, the cedar trees, the alder, maple, ferns, berry bushes, the medicine and food plants, the rocks and especially beautiful...the sound of water on water. The plant nation began to call attention to themselves...dandelion was the first...great food and medicine. Cat tails, Tiger Lilly, all different berries. Food and medicine everywhere I looked. The energies of everything around me changed."
