“I swear the earth shall surely be complete to him or her who shall be complete,
The earth remains jagged and broken only to him or her who remains jagged and broken.
I swear there is no greatness or power that does not emulate those of the earth,
There can be no theory of any account unless it corroborate the theory of the earth,
No politics, song, religion, behavior or what not,
Is of account, unless it compare with the amplitude of the earth,
Unless it face the exactness, vitality, impartiality, the rectitude of the earth.”
—–Walt Whitman

Just love the beauty of this post from Barbara at Idealisticrebel! One of my favorite blogs!
All things spring from the earth, and this is in keeping with the majority of cultural traditions that places the earth at the centre of human reality.
Indeed. thanks for the comment. Have a good evening.
