At the heart of things is a secret law of balance and when our approach is respectful, sensitive and worthy, gifts of healing, challenge and creativity open to us. A gracious approach is the key that unlocks the treasure of encounter. The way we are present to each other is frequently superficial. In many areas of our lives the rich potential of friendship and love remains out of our reach because we push towards ‘connection.’ When we deaden our own depths, we cannot strike a resonance in those we meet or in the work we do.
A reverence of approach awakens depth and enables us to be truly present where we are. When we approach with reverence great things decide to approach us. Our real life comes to the surface and its light awakens the concealed beauty of things. When we walk on the earth with reverence, beauty will decide to trust us. The rushed heart and the arrogant mind lack the gentleness and patience to enter that embrace. Beauty is mysterious, a slow presence who waits for the ready, expectant heart.

why I choose silence and space…
inquiry for today~ when the wind blows, lean in….
There’s a special kind of magic in those who find wonder in the simple, yet profound moments of life—those who greet the sunrise with hope, watch the sunset with gratitude, and lose themselves in the vastness of a star-filled sky or the gentle glow of a full moon.
These are the souls who cherish the quiet beauty that often goes unnoticed, and in their appreciation, they remind us to slow down and truly see the world around us. But beyond nature’s splendor, it’s their love for deep connections and heart-to-heart conversations that truly sets them apart.
They seek authenticity, vulnerability, and understanding—creating spaces where souls can meet and breathe freely. These people bring light not only to the skies they admire but to the hearts they touch, weaving threads of meaning, warmth, and belonging in the tapestry of our lives.
They are the kindred spirits who make the journey richer and the world more soulful.
