Excercise your soul

Venaya and Rollie the family dog in
eastern Navajo lands, NM.

It is my daily ritual each morning to:
Rise early, pray and get out the door to trek.
My daily mantra is to sing at the river.
My daily medicine is to experience the beauty and natural 'adornment' of earth.
Every day I am humbled.
Every day I am thankful.

Every day is about Adornment

Everyday our eyes behold 'adornment.' In this case I speak of the 'adornment' of the Earth and Sky, for they are ever present in our human lives. The experience of sight continually amazes me and perpetually stirs my soul to praise. To present in nature and to breath in the Beauty is medicine and I am honored to be humbled at God's magnificent Creation.

March on the eastern Dine' lands in northwestern New Mexico has been overflowing with the most spectacular sunsets. I am blessed to live in a place where my eyes have access to the splendor of desert sandstone mesas that are uninterrupted by technology via power poles or fences. My art studio faces the west and many instances amid my own creation of art I often look out my windows for divine inspiration.

The Beauty of the land and her many adornments via the clouds, flora and fauna, colors of sky and times of day are endless and continual, but we must take the time to 'look.' All my life I have been fascinated with the outdoors, I find comfort in the wildness of the details of nature. My own soul adores the plethora of colors and textures available to experience, and in it all I see the Beauty of 'Adornment.' I hope you see it too! 

Blessings in all things.
