With a steaming mug of hot herbs in my quiet enclave it is wisdom I seek.
Aesthetically Love is the essence of timeless Soul Beauty moving through mankind in time… of course y’all know this!
Since prehistoric cave drawings, human creative skills have put together various combinations of qualities such as — according to the dictionary — shapes & colors etc., that pleases the aesthetic senses. Going hand-in-hand art and love produces beauty that stands the test of time, to be enjoyed and inspirational to our sight, touch, hearing, taste, smell, and coming full circle… our soul.
When I travel, besides the local beer makers (for my husband) I always make it a point to visit a magnificent Cathedral, I am endlessly inspired by their majesty. Lots of skyscrapers, buildings and other structures make my jaw drop at their awesomeness. Paintings and sculptures have powerfully expressed such exquisite beauty that once in their presence is to have a piece of them forever in your heart. Music has affectively stirred my entire life in countless positive ways, so that even after not hearing something for many years, once heard again memories flood my body and I will remember long ago places and experiences where the music had colored my world. Transported by a great photograph I’ve been around this beautiful world and universe countless times, whether it’s someone’s love for their picturesque subject or my own delight in taking a tangible frozen moment, this aesthetic love is Soul Beauty. I love to take pictures, which is the main reason I decided to retire my bulky camera and at the age of 67 get my first ever great picture taking cell phone!
St. Augustine said “Love is the Beauty of the Soul”… In whatever vehicle or form you find, appreciate, create, see and hear Beautiful Love, remember it is your SOUL. blissfully joyously loving itself.
Splendid Corpse flower pictures don’t come with the smell… THANK GOODNESS!!!
