Nature Is Beautiful



“Nature is a revelation of God; 
Art is a revelation of man” 
 Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 
 
Nature is beautiful, 
and you are in her bosom. 
That voice of comfort which speaks
 in the breezes of morning,
 may visit your mind, 
that the delightful influences
 which the green leaves, 
the blue sky,
 the moonbeams and clouds
 of the evening 
diffuse over the universe,
 may in their powers of soul-healing, visit your day visions, 
is my desire and hope.
 Sir Humphry Davy

A Life of Gratitude

To speak gratitude is courteous and pleasant, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live gratitude is to touch Heaven. Johannes A. Gaertner To live a life of gratitude is to open our eyes to the countless ways in which we are supported by the world around us. Such a life provides less space for our suffering because our attention is more balanced. We are more often occupied with noticing what we are given, thanking those who have helped us, and repaying the world in some concrete way for what we are receiving. Gregg Krech Explore This Website
