Look softly upon the land.
See it with emotion, intuition, your senses, your consciousness.
Soften the focus of your mind to truly see
the beauty of your surroundings.

A birch leaf rests atop a maple leaf that bends the surface of
dark water reflecting the trees and sky above it all. There is a point
where all of these layers of reality come together; a point where
leaves meld into water into reflection into light. That point exists
within all of us, too. It is that humming, vibrating place of
our consciousness where everything and nothing exist all at once.

Clouds part for the sky to open. The clouds are nothing, really;
collections of moisture, residue, flecks of this and that;
refracting and blocking light so that they form seemingly
significant apparitions over our view. They come and go –
sometimes uplifting, sometimes threatening – across the sky
that is always just there. Clouds are like the continuous
stream of thoughts that cross the sky of our consciousness.
