Be a Mountain

Stand tall.

Be a mountain.

Stand tall.

Give shade to those below you.

Be someone others look up to.

but remember

A mountain is not plastic.

It isn’t resistant to change

A mountain is shaped by the smallest, softest of things.

Wind. Water. The cold side of your pillow.

Friends who make you smile when you feel low.

Wear the scars of every landslide with the clouds as your crown

Wear them with pride.

Let the ashes of every wildfire burning in your heart

echo through your bones.

There is ferocious strength in vulnerability.
