Silent Beauty

Attempts to connect with beauty are never pointless. Lockdown during the pandemic can tempt otherwise. Such temptations can register as turning in on self. Those turning are always dangerous, St. Ignatius of Loyola counselled, because one misses the accurate, whole picture.

Natural beauty is a connection of the first order. One need not travel far; a bird’s nest in a yard can be a portal to silent beauty, Gavin Thomas Murphy noted and “offers…3 minute guided meditation” to access it.
