Through the Dense Forest is the Light
How to “be” like the tortoise
The shift was coming, and Emery could feel it.
Confusion set in on why others couldn’t see it, too.
Or did they not care?
“Innerstanding” that it didn’t matter whether they did or not had been the work.
So she trudged on. Knowing that the long game would serve best as consistent reminders of the ones who walked this path before her.
Isn’t there a story about The Tortoise and the Hare?
Maybe it’s not told in classrooms anymore.
Or perhaps, the dense frequency from distractions keeps the message at bay.
If only…
Emery stopped the inside loop that would have kept her in the void.
What did it matter? And she shifted.
All for the wiser…
And the long game like the tortoise she so embodied.
