The Earth...

I woke up in the morning and while I was reading my book with a cup of tea...
I came across a knowing that the 'Earth' is alive just like I am alive, just like we all are alive...
It's massive and it's existence has lead to our existence also...

While having my breakfast I saw in the news about the Japan earthquake and Tsunami...
I saw the vastness of the earth and the tininess of us humans.

'I' always feels 'I' am the biggest, 'I' am immortal, but such situations bring us face to face with truth but still the ego never accepts it.

Seeing the massive earth's fury, I was so upset, I became sad...
My heart cried for all the beings who are suffering...
I was wondering what can be done by this little me...

I lie down on the earth, embraced it, expressed sorry on behalf of the whole humanity...
sorry for everything we have done to it, for all the harms, the harshness...
I expressed my gratitude to my earth for everything that I, we have received through it...

I embraced it lovingly, warmly and touched it, loved it...
I mothered it and gently lovingly asked it to calm down, to relax...
In my heart, I sang a lullaby for my beloved earth...
and said 'I love you and will always love you' ... please calm down, be silent...I love you...

I don't know if the vast earth received the love of this tiny little being,
listened to my lullaby or not...
but I will shower all that I have on my earth, and all I have is 'love'
