Circle of Life

It is our thinking mind that names, labels and separates everything, when in fact, everything is connected

See how the tree is not just a tree it is a part of a circle

When it breathes, it gives life to the clouds, which are not just the clouds but a part of a cycle

The clouds give birth to the rain, which is not just the rain but the rivers and oceans too

Which feed the soil that feed the roots that feed the tree so that we can breathe

It is all connected, this circle of life, this includes you and me

We have our ancestors, our children, our friends, our lovers

We have been and will always be a part of each other

And we will change and take different shapes, so it is important to remember

We are all a pieces of a bigger puzzle

No beginning or end and the picture becomes clear

We are part of the whole and have nothing to fear

It is always this moment, it is always today

We are always at some point along the way

I was living in Costa Rica when I heard of the passing of Tim Whitney. This painting and poem is inspired by him. We love you, Tim!
