When The Sky Speaks To The Soil: The Secret Work Of Lightening And Thunder.
Before calendars and forecasts, farmers learned to read the weather like a sacred script. They watched the wind, listened to silence, and waited for the whisper before the roar.
The land spoke, and those who worked the land, listened with their feet and their hearts. It would start with a stillness. Smoke from morning fires refused to rise. Chickens paused their scratching. Goats sniffed the air. Even the frogs in shallow streams would sing at strange hours. There was a tension in the sky, like something holding its breath. When that happened, the old ones would nod slowly and say, “The sky is sharpening its teeth.”
Humans Are All Visitors On Earth.
Most people hear that sentence and interpret it as poetry. But it is not poetry. It is a description of reality. Every human being arrives here empty-handed.
You do not choose your birth. You do not choose the family that receives you. You do not choose the language spoken around you. You do not choose the colour of your eyes, the century of your arrival, the country stamped onto your identity, or the countless conditions that existed before your first breath.
You enter a world already in motion.
The trees were growing before you arrived.
The rivers were flowing before you arrived.
The stars were burning before you arrived.
The civilizations were building, collapsing, fighting, dreaming, and evolving before you arrived.
And one day, everything will continue after you leave.
That is the first truth hidden inside the statement.
A visitor does not own the place they visit.
Yet humans spend their lives acting as though ownership is absolute.
