Day 071b: When the fog augments the Beauty … (June 24, 2019)
Some might think that the fog obscures the wonders that lie ahead, and yet a different view maintains that fog but ladles a soft layer of wonderment upon the same – making the path ahead seem celestial; making the lilies by the roadside (and all similar grandeurs) suddenly appear as if from nothing …
“A walk. The atmosphere incredibly pure … joy in one’s whole being … I abandoned myself to life and to nature … To open one’s heart in purity to this ever-pure nature, to allow this immortal life of things to penetrate into one’s soul, is at the same time to listen to the voice of God. In this way sensation may become a prayer, and self-abandonment an act of devotion.” ~ Henri-Frédéric Amiel
