Remind me that the most fertile lands were built by the fires of volcanoes.

Andrea Gibson
About This Quote

When a volcano erupts, it creates a massive amount of debris from the ash and lava it sheds. This debris builds huge masses of land that can be used for farming when it cools down. Volcanoes provide an example of man’s capacity to create his own reality. When a volcano erupts, the result is a tremendous amount of fertile land that was not there before. The same can be said about our own ability to create our own reality by harnessing the power of the mind and spirit.
