I bow down to the ancient wisdom of the earth

I walked past the narrow off-beaten path that everyone in our village warned us about.

“The one that led directly into the deep Jungle, where the dangerous animals lived,” they said.

I always gave it a glance before walking past the narrow path, along the usual road I follow to reach my home.

Curiosity to know what lay in the depths of the forest if I just showed the courage to take the off-beaten path lay buried deep in me for as long as I can remember.

Today was the day I finally decided to go and check for myself where the dark narrow path led.

“I will run back to the main road the moment I see any signs of danger” I promised myself and took the path that no one dared to choose for years.

I’d expected danger but what I found instead was the ancient Oak tree that stood at the center, parting its wisdom to other trees that surrounded it.

I couldn’t believe I was able to understand the trees when they spoke.

I learned so much from them, day after day I took the same narrow path that deviated from the main road.

I soon noticed a difference in how I saw things around me, I looked around and I could understand every plant that stood there, I could identify and differentiate the medicinal plants from the poisonous ones.

I no longer feared the snakes that crawled through the branches of the trees, sitting upright listening to the ancient Oak tree just like me.

This is a secret I’ve kept all my life. I still do go into the forest to learn from the Oaktree.

The one who taught me to bow down to the ancient wisdom of the earth.
