Posted on October 18, 2021 by beth

“that we find a crystal or a poppy beautiful means that we are less alone,

that we are more deeply inserted into existence than the course of a single life would lead us to believe.”

The natural world surrounds us with beauty, if we but take the time to look. Another great post and quote, Beth!

It may be that we only have a single life, but in my experience the evidence says we have more than one.
