		<description>Every time I think of your topic I think of the Navajo Blessing Way:

In beauty may I walk.
All day long may I walk.
Through the returning seasons may I walk.
On the trail marked with pollen may I walk.
With grasshoppers about my feet may I walk.
With dew about my feet may I walk.
With beauty may I walk.
With beauty before me, may I walk.
With beauty behind me, may I walk.
With beauty above me, may I walk.
With beauty below me, may I walk.
With beauty all around me, may I walk.
In old age wandering on a trail of beauty, lively, may I walk.
In old age wandering on a trail of beauty, living again, may I walk.
It is finished in beauty.
It is finished in beauty</description>

		<description>Hey Laurel,

Thanks for this post.  I am happy that BEAUTY revealed itself to you as the topic to post and the initiative to champion.  You have invited us to cultivate an awareness...What if we asked ourselves, in every deliberation, &quot;What about Beauty?&quot;

I am also reminded of a passage from Osho, that The mind always asks &quot;How?&quot;  The HEART listens and acts.  Knowing and Action are one in the heart.  By championing beauty you invite us to know &amp; act from the heart, with the mind like a trusted loyal servant, like a little dog.

ps Laurel - I inserted the links into your post this morning.  The publishing process doesn&#039;t automatically insert links when you type in a URL.  When you post as an Author, you can insert links by selecting the link text and clicking on the chain-link icon on the toolbar.  Enter the URL in the pop-up window (&amp; I suggest selecting &quot;open in a new window&quot;).  Thanks!

Wondering how Swannanoa River Road looks this morning... :-)
