The mountain

Be the mountain,

Imagine in yourself the strength,

the will, the patience, of a mountain.

Imagine the presence that a mountain exerts,

dominating the landscape.

Whoever living within their shadow giving a knowing respect,

living out their lives with a reverence for something

that would always be there for them, should they look up.

Giving them a sense of perspective,

a sense of permanence and companionship.

Having a friend in the mountain.

Be that mountain.

That others will always look to,

that others will know you are there

should they look up.

That they may look to you for a friend when needed most.

Permanent and unwavering.
