I went outside to smoke a cigarette
And I looked at the trees
And I looked to the trees
For guidance
And the trees said
Be still.
Do not wander
And be present with your pain,
Do not seek another place but here.
Let it come over you and depart as
The clouds come and go in the sky
Or as the rain washes over the landscape
Or as time passes through all.
All living things find the way back home in time;
There is nowhere else to be.

Sometimes it's rough but you gotta be here for it & the rest that comes after :)
