“Do not forget that the ashes falling from the sky are all that remains of the pine and grass and thistle and bear and coyote and deer and mouse that could not escape. Scoop some up in a sacred manner. Take it to your altar. Offer prayers for these beings. Honor their death. Pray for life. Call in rain. Remind Fire that it is full, has gobbled enough, and can rest. May all beings be safe. May all beings be loved. May all beings be remembered. May all beings be mourned.” ~ Sadee Whip

❤ such tragically beautiful words. so very sad
There’s another line someone added to this quote – “They are also someone”s loved ones, cherished belongings, unrreplaceable items & their beloved animals.” It’s the ashes of people as well at this point…and yes, so tragically sad.
So true!! TY for pointing this out! 🙏🏽😢🙏🏽
Reblogged this on It Is What It Is and commented:
It’s not only fire, buildings, humans … it’s ALL life!!
So sad to see and hear so many fires and even more sad part is, this is not even the end. We all are being tested in so many ways this year. Stay strong, end is near!!
