"To me, nature is soothing,
the perfect healer!...nothing better
than to immerse in nature
when you need some fixing."
-Nicolas Marchand
Today's Touchstone photo was taken the last time Frank and I were on Sanibel Island before Hurricane Ian. In a little rented boat we moved slowly along a bay's shoreline to connect with nature and see whatever we might see...to connect softly with each other too.
Let's aim for something like that
today.
Whether it's by the sea,
on a mountain, within a forest or in a desert - or on a treed sidewalk shaded with dappled light, find a place in nature today. If you are confined indoors, travel in your imagination to a place in nature that comforts and uplifts you.
Let's connect softly with one another today - in our minds and hearts - with an appreciation for nature, for life, and the gift of this
day.
With love and reverence,
Charlene
THE NINTH GIFT IS REVERENCE.
May you appreciate the wonder that you are
and the miracle of all creation.
