Take a Walk With Me…The World Is Holy

Posted on February 16, 2013 by

“The world is holy. We are holy. All life is holy.

Daily prayers are delivered on the lips of breaking waves, the whisperings of grasses, the shimmering of leaves.”

~ Terry Tempest Williams

Take a walk with me.

When I need to be alone, this is where I head.

When I need to remember to look closely.

When I need to hear prayers whispered to me,

and see the color, witness the adaptability and the tenderness of the world outside myself.

When I need to be reminded that life is a study in contrast.

and that we are merely the recipients of her beauty.

The world is holy.

We are holy.

All life is holy.

    Okay,
    seriously,
    that is one of the best quotes I’ve read for a long time.
    I shall use and re-use.

    Thank you, Mama. Xxx

      Kim, isn’t it lovely? I just so connected to it. I use nature to give me perspective so often; that day I read it as soon as I came home from my walk, and thought the images and words really fit together nicely. Thank you so much for commenting. ~Jennifer
