In this world ablaze with sectarian violence, and divided by narrow self-interest, and filled with non-stop noise and clutter, there is a way out of our splintered, empty ways.
It is through the daily sermon of nature that begins at dawn with a beauty that can move us and a power that can shake us. This silent proclamation is open to all without regard to nation, creed, race, or religion. And if we will stop, and pay attention, and recognize the universal truths contained in this wordless speech, we can be healed, and we can be whole, and we can be one. ~Jack McKinney, Pullen Memorial Baptist Church, Chapel Hill, NC, via Herman Greene
Let this spring begin to heal us. Namaste.

Another beautiful reflection. If only others could see nature's wordless sermon and feel it grab your heartstrings and begin a melody only angels could play.
