If there is anything real…

If there is anything real in this world, I’m convinced it is a universal power called love. Whether it is born from our hearts or from a Master Diamond Cutter, I have seen it cross every border of culture and religion.

I noticed the beautiful plumes of purple on our jacaranda as I sat underneath it's shade. Purple is my favorite color anyways, and the stark contrast of the tree's flowers against lush green leaves gave me great joy.  Later, a hummingbird buzzed past me to play in the branches. I was filled with a sense… Continue reading What Is Our Purpose?

Natural is Beautiful

Just before I dashed into my car for a meeting, I noticed the sky was bluer than normal. For a quick moment I wondered if the subduing color was real or computer enhanced. I don’t think that was crazy. Nowadays, it seems everything that comes across our senses has been altered in some way. Landscapes… Continue reading Natural is Beautiful
