I Am A Cloud (Freedom of the Heart)
I am a cloud, I am the blue sky
I am a bird spreading out its wings
I am a flower, I am the sunshine
I am the earth receiving a seed
And I am free when my heart is open
Yes, I am free when my mind is clear
Oh Dear Brother, oh Dear Sister
Let's walk together mindfully
And I am free when my heart is open
Yes, I am free when my mind is clear
Oh Dear Brother, oh Dear Sister
Let's walk together joyfully

Please don't build me a stupa. Please don't put my ashes in a jar, put me in there and limit who I am. I know this will be difficult for some of you. However, if you must build a stupa, make sure you put up a sign that says "I'm not here." Alternatively, you can also put up another sign that says "I'm not there either". And the third sign says, 'If I'm somewhere, it's in your mindful breathing and in your peaceful steps.
Thanks Thich Nhat Hanh.

I believe Joe Reilly wrote this song. Thank you for this lovely arrangement.

[@trueaspirationoftheheart]

I'm very glad you enjoyed it! Interesting if it's true that Joe Reilly wrote this song ... He isn't credited in the Plum Village song book, so apologies if I've missed him!
