For Love Of The World

For Love of The World

Charlotte Tall Mountain

For the love of a tree, she went out on a limb.

For the love of the sea, she rocked the boat.

For the love of the earth, she dug deeper.

For the love of community, she mended fences.

For the love of the stars, she let her light shine.

For the love of the spirit, she nurtured her soul.

For the love of a good time, she sowed seeds of happiness.

For the love of the Goddess, she drew down the moon.

For the love of nature, she made compost.

For the love of a good meal, she gave thanks.

For the love of family, she reconciled differences.

For the love of creativity, she entertained new possibilities.

For the love of her enemies, she suspended judgement.

For the love of herself, she acknowledged her worth.

And the world was richer for her.

Well, everyone- tomorrow I am off for the biggest adventure of my life! India isn't going to know what hit it! Plans are to leave around 1pm tomorrow afternoon and be at the airport between 5pm and 5:30pm to leave on our 8:50 flight. Me and Mom: 14 hours in the air- bring it on!! I am so excited. I am very fortunate to have been able to see my very good friends before I left- Milli and Shawn braved Toronto just to see me! Thanks guys. I will miss you all- and will talk to you all soon.
