Quando o Sol e a Terra se encontram
em mudanças de estação
o que dirão um ao outro,
nesta movimentação?
O que escutarão
os seres que habitam os seus corpos?
O que ouvirão os seus espíritos
em ressonante e harmónica conjugação?
Sentirão uma nova vibração?
Prestarão, eles, atenção à vida
e toda a sua jornada?
Mudança de estação,
ligada,
é guia...
é renovação,
experimentação,
alada, a mágica ondulação,
até à próxima chegada.

"This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they are a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice.
meet them at the door laughing and invite them in.
Be grateful for whatever comes.
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond."
