I love spending time in the Mountains.
I consider them to be both friends and teachers. Their lessons are enduring, as they come from years of standing tall regardless of their outward circumstances.
I come to them seeking…
Seeking the glory of their magnificence…
A glory that often connects me with profound moments of Beauty, Wonder, and Awe!
I come to rest in their quiet stillness…
A stillness that invites my mind to empty, and my heart to make space to hear the voice of God.
I also come to the Mountains to be reminded of the importance of Humility…
To be humbled by the experience that there is always a perspective that is more vast than what my limited mind can perceive.
And Finally, I come to the Mountains to seek Peace…
to seek the Inner Peace that comes from Maintaining my Core Values and Stability, even when the world around me seems to be spinning out of control.
I come to the Mountains seeking this Lesson, for the Mountains have long used the strength of their mass to act as “balancing agents” for all of the Earth. For millions of years they have served as gravitational Stabilizers for our entire Planet and have served to protect the Earth from wobbling on Her axis. And so, For the Gift of the Mountains, and all of their Beauty, and all of their Strength, and all of their Magic, and all of their Lessons, and for all of the incredible Creation of our Amazing Earth, I humbly give thanks to our Great Creator God for all of the magnificent Beauty and Perfection of our Glorious Planet.
May we always honor our Divine Creator and have utmost respect for all of Creation.
