HIKING IN WILDERNESS IS BEAUTY IS WHOLENESS

“Beauty is a sense of totality, or wholeness.”
Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche

It is how I felt during a wonderful hike up Tabor Creek on Saturday. Hiking in wilderness is indeed connecting with spirit. The mind quiets down and turns into contemplation mode. I feel connected to nature around me in all its aspects: mountains, rocks, flowers, water, grass, sky, fresh air and silence. Nothing is needed but a sense of gratitude and a camera so I can bring it back  for those who cannot go on such hikes.
