Walking through a friend’s rose garden the other day … this one opened to greet my lens:
In my in-box this morning, a quote from my friend Liz:
"There is in all things an inexhaustible sweetness and purity, a silence that is a fount of action and joy. It rises up in wordless gentleness and flows out to me from the unseen roots of all created being, welcoming me tenderly, saluting me with indescribable humility."
~ from Thomas Merton‘s poem, Hagia Sophia.
The Beauty Dialogues is here to illuminate the beauty of this world – not just the beauty of form, but also the patterns of essential wholeness that go beyond the visible.
Wholeness dissolves the illusion that life and work are separate so sometimes I write about design and the language of online communications, but it’s always about what, to me, life looks like through a beauty-lens.
I got an incredible compliment the other day from a good friend of mine. She said that ever since she started reading the Beauty Dialogues, she is seeing Beauty everywhere, all around her.
This is the highest accolade I can ever imagine receiving, and I’m still stunned by it.
May we all be given the grace of seeing beauty, everywhere around us…
