Enchanted Paths

In the stillness, nature reveals her mysteries

A simple uneventful walk along a well-worn path in the woods can transform in a moment’s notice into something magical. A single mushroom, standing confidently in the sun’s embrace speaks of the resilience of nature, of the magic that exists below the surface of all we see. Breaking through the soil from its quiet slumber, revealing enchanting colors and textures. If you listen closely, you might hear it whisper, “there is so much you do not know or understand, quietly supporting every step you take through life”.

 

These moments of enchantment and wonder come not because of chance encounters, but because we walk with an open-heart inviting nature’s mysteries to unfold before us. By removing the blinders that confine us to our habitual ways of seeing, and instead asking “What do you want to show me?”, we allow ourselves to rediscover the world around us with awe and curiosity. We awaken a childlike curiosity from deep within, rekindling the innate wonder we were born with, allowing it to be rekindled once again.
