Beauty

May I walk with Beauty before me

May I walk with Beauty behind me.

May I walk with Beauty above me

May I walk with Beauty all around me.

As I walk the Beauty way.

Navaho Prayer

What is this beauty that the Navaho seek? It is what pulls us toward life. It is what calls to us when we are in despair, seduces us into opening again and again and again to the possibility of love and laughter. It is the physical manifestation of the Mystery- God, Spirit, the Divine – that surrounds and beckons to us every day of our lives. It is life that chooses life. The Navaho prayer expresses our soul’s desire to recognize and receive beauty, knowing that as we do, so we become co creators of this beauty, of that which urges, “Live.”

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.

  1. Absolutely beautiful! This speaks so much to me. Thank you for sharing. Life, myself, other people, everything can be so confusing sometimes. But somehow moments of deep love and beauty allow me to see so clearly, to feel so clearly, everyone and everything for a moment.
