For my Brother's Children

Believe in tomorrow, know that the Sun will rise to warm your face and feed your soul. Pray to the heavens because something divine guides the stars. Know that life is rare and special. Feel blessed that your soul was trapped even briefly in this earthly body. You've been given a gift be thankful and rejoice everyday you have. Know that others have come before and others will come after but you are here now to enact change and witness the beautiful unfold. The sunset bears witness that the world turns and is mother to all life. The father, Sun, comes and leaves daily to remind us all we have come and will someday leave but do not worry, it is all part of a divine plan. You are eternal and are here to write the history of the stars, living, breathing, and dying.
