TODAY'S TOUCHSTONE

"Looking for and enjoying beauty is a way to nourish the soul. The universe is in the habit of making beauty...Beauty is everywhere."

            ~ Matthew Fox

This is a day late, but I'm wanting to recognize Earth Day and focus on beauty again today, as we did yesterday. 

Yesterday, 192 countries noted the day by holding teach-ins and marches for science. Yes, some were protests. But behind nearly every protest there is a sincere and deep concern for the health and well-being of our planet.

I think it would be great if we started positive rituals and traditions for honoring Mother Nature, especially to nurture this in the children. What do you think?

Next year I plan to plant a tree and take other actions to be determined.  


Today, let's notice how the universe and Mother Nature are in the habit of making beauty, as Matthew Fox says. 

Whenever you appreciate outer beauty today, see if you can sense how that outer beauty is resonating with the beauty in you, like a tuning fork.

For the good of all, may we bring beauty into our souls and send beauty out into the world, t
oday and every day. 

With reverence,
Charlene
