“The birds rise above the rest, plan and open their wings to contemplate, to reach and now to be reborn. Its flight does not end, it has always existed, the vibration of the earth sustains them and its fluttering moves everything. The chest of a bird is sheltered with colorful plumages, the chest of a coils the clouds around, the flight of a bird clears the path of the sun. Nature is self-sustaining, its processes, its changes, are succeeded to harmonize. Maybe it’s time to learn from it, learn how to fly light, how to beat the wings with the nectar of flowers, how to move filled with color and not obscuring life.”
