such beauty, such life

22/03/2014

It has been a beautiful day.


As the sun was sinking low on the horizon, I gazed upwards, at the snow-covered mountain top. There was a mystical silence in the air, despite the songs of the birds and the occasional human voice drifting up the valley. This stillness was alive, pregnant with life itself.


I feel blessed. To be able to walk the timeless trails hereabouts – through the woods, with dappled light adding enchantment to the wonders of nature – is such a gift. It is the gift of beauty. It is the gift of life. It is the gift of suchness.


Thank you existence!
