Looking at this photo makes my heart sing! I can feel it coming from the earth, the leaves and the tree. Laura Foster Nicholson‘s husband spent two days meditatively raking the leaves into this beautiful labyrinth at the base of this bright sugar maple in the Harmonist Cemetery. How much more powerful is that tree now with the addition of this sweet labyrinth.
These are temporal works of art, maintained by constant Zen-like raking, beautiful to walk and to gaze up through the boughs of the generous tree-host.
Today’s MotD so beautifully reminds us to play WITH nature rather than work against it.

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways
For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits.
Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it.
As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
