“You do not understand that the trees must sleep…that the soil must sleep…that the land itself must sleep. All things proceed in their natural rhythm, and you are a part of this. But you do not want to be a part of it, and your wish to stand alone has now left you vulnerable. From here, all you can do is fall.
“But there is wisdom even in falling. You are part of a cycle far too large and too long for you to see. But I see the length of you. I know the breadth of you. I carry the depth of you in my body and in my soul. Therein, you are safe. Because there you have always been, and are now, and forever will be.
“Many things will change, but this will not change. I have always been your Mother. I have always guided you, even when I walked behind you and stood in the dark in your shadow where you could not see. Even then, I watched over you. I am watching now. I hold within Me all that you are and all you can be.
“Not one of you will ever find yourself alone or cast away. I am your Mother. There is no other. There is no place for you to flee.”
