Shake off this sadness, and recover your spirit

Shake off this sadness, and recover your spirit

Throw Yourself Like Seed

Shake off this sadness, and recover your spirit;
sluggish you will never see the wheel of fate
that brushes your heel as it turns going by,
the man who wants to live is the man in whom life is abundant.

Now you are only giving food to that final pain
which is slowly winding you in the nets of death,
but to live is to work, and the only thing which lasts
is the work; start then, turn to the work.

Throw yourself like seed as you walk, and into your own field,
don’t turn your face for that would be to turn it to death,
and do not let the past weigh down your motion.

Leave what’s alive in the furrow, what’s dead in yourself,
for life does not move in the same way as a group of clouds;
from your work you will be able one day to gather yourself. 

— Miguel de Unamuno

Chloë Rain is the Founder of Explore Deeply. She has been trained in ceremonial practices and shamanic healing techniques from two living traditional medicine paths, one in North America and one in South America. She has apprenticed under two indigenous medicine people for more than a decade, is a certified Native American Healing Arts Practitioner, and has a Masters degree in Indigenous Studies from the Arctic University of Norway where she spent four years in the Arctic circle, researching the sacred landscape of Sápmi, the land of the indigenous Sámi people.

Door haar werk hoopt ze meer mensen te inspireren om te luisteren naar de roep van hun ziel, en ze wat beter te laten kijken naar zichzelf, naar de natuurlijke omgeving om hen heen en naar andere mensen en onze overtuigingen van scheiding, ras, cultuur en religie.
