It has been a week since I read any of the daily meditations. As I was traveling outside of the country I was not sure if my meditation book would pass inspection and I chose to leave it behind. This does not mean I have not been loving the Earth and singing praises to her.
I went to Mexico City to visit a friend. As we walked the streets and the boulevards, I could not help but notice these beautiful trees. The purple blooms were more vibrant that the redbud trees I am more familiar with.
As my friend and I strolled the purple petals would float down upon and were underfoot as well. As we strolled my heart was filled with joy and love and I lifted it up in praise of God and Earth.
As I have followed these daily meditations, I have been struck by how often we ignore the beauty that is around us. It takes only an instant to refocus our attention long enough to notice it and in that moment to truly love the Earth and be thankful to God for the beauty surrounding us.
Blessed be us! Blessed be the Earth! Blessed be God!
