Description
I, like many others, am drawn to the beauty of nature. For me, it’s a deep feeling of connection and belonging. It’s where my soul feels at home. I have always referred to nature as my saving grace.
Nature has also been a mirror of reflections for me; reflecting back to me whatever it was I needed to see; like the famous quote; “When the student is ready, the teacher appears.
Nature’s reflections are a natural occurrence that appears in our path when we are open and ready to receive.”
In this glorious moment, fixating my lens on this lovely snowy egret, looking up from underneath its beautiful cascading umbrella of feathers.
Nature’s mirror of reflections was speaking to me, the message being received was about underlying beauty.
In my mind, there is no doubt that beauty lies within every one of us. As you can see, we often hide it deep underneath many layers.
Being mindfully aware of my thought process, I couldn’t help to contemplate the beauty that was lying underneath it all.
The words what if appeared in my mind's eye? It seems my curiosity was opening up. Hmm, I thought, What if I were to look at it through a different lens, flip it around referring to it as, “The Nature of Beauty?”
“The Nature of Beauty” is one of the most omniscient, poetic acts of grace that touches even the weariest of souls. It is one of the most abundant gifts that nature has to offer.
Beauty, like nature has its way of bursting us wide open, drawing us inward to examine what lies underneath; bringing synchronicity and harmony to our lives. With the help from my conscious awareness, the title, ‘The Nature of Beauty,’ was born.
