Michael's Musings- The Grand Canyon

"The Mortal needs to be aware of and Gaze at his own Soul and Spirit in order to have meaning in his life, for the Mortal without Soul and Spirit is loveless. In the same way, the Soul and the Spirit of the Grand Canyon need a Mortal to Gaze at them if the Canyon is to be loved and have meaning, for if there is nobody there to Gaze, the nature is loveless.

Our inner life is like the Colorado streaming through the unimaginable depths and heights of our being, with the ever-changing light at dawn and dusk inspiring Soul and Spirit, and the moments of illumination in between cause Mortals to gasp with wonder at the ebb and flow of life. At night, everything vanishes into the darkness that is both prelude to a new day, and a reminder to Gazing Mortals that time is running out. (Visited with Sandra and John on November 20-21 2008)"


This post is excerpted from a book by Michael, of Love, Loss, and Forgiveness essays, to be published in 2010.
