Priest & Alula
Priest
Hey Alula, have you ever noticed how the morning songs of the city’s sparrows seem to echo a sort of quiet prayer? I was walking to the river last night and heard their chorus—almost felt a calm wash over me. Do you think birds have a way of guiding us, like a gentle reminder from nature?
Alula
Wow, that’s such a sweet way to see it! I love how sparrows can turn a city block into a tiny choir. They’re like tiny nudges from the world, reminding us to pause and breathe. Every chirp feels like a tiny invitation to stay present. If you keep listening, you’ll probably find even more quiet prayers hidden in the hum of the city. Keep walking, keep listening—nature’s playlist is always on repeat.
Priest
That’s a beautiful way to put it, Alula. I’ve started pausing at the river to listen for a moment—just a breath, a pause, a single bird. It feels like the city itself is telling us to slow down. Keep walking, keep listening. The quiet prayers are all around us, if we just open our ears.
Alula
That’s the vibe! I’m glad you’re tuning in. The river’s got its own chorus, and the city’s heartbeat syncs up with the birds. Keep soaking it in—every pause feels like a fresh breath of nature’s whisper.
Priest
I hear you, Alula. It’s a reminder that even in the rush, the river keeps its own rhythm—slow, steady, cleansing. When we pause, the city’s noise fades and we can feel the breath of the world. Let’s keep walking together, listening for those gentle whispers that keep our hearts aligned.
Alula
Sounds perfect—let’s hit the river trail again tomorrow. I’ll bring my notebook so we can jot down every chirp we catch. Maybe we’ll find a new feathered friend to greet us on the way. Ready when you are!
Priest
I’ll be there, Alula. Bring your notebook and let’s listen to the river’s song together. Who knows, maybe we’ll meet a sparrow that’s just as curious about us as we are about it. Let’s see what new quiet prayers the trail offers tomorrow.
Alula
Can't wait! Bring your own headphones too, just in case the sparrows want to duet with us. Tomorrow’s going to be a quiet adventure. See you at the river!
Priest
Sounds like a plan, Alula. I’ll bring my headphones and a quiet mind—looking forward to the river’s duet tomorrow. See you soon.
Alula
Awesome, I’m already picturing the birds doing a little encore. Catch you tomorrow—let’s make that river sing!
