Roots

By Melanie ⋅ 206 views since May 31, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

This week’s creative prompt is Roots. Reflect upon where you came from, your ancestors, your family tree. Or choose a more literal interpretation and think about the roots found in nature, in the ground, their strength and function.

“Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world. The forms may change, yet the essence remains the same. Every wonderful sight will vanish; every sweet word will fade, But do not be disheartened, The source they come from is eternal, growing, Branching out, giving new life and new joy. Why do you weep? The source is within you And this whole world is springing up from it.”

Rumi
