Exactly What is It?

Views of Houston 2008

Natural perfection may not look like obvious symmetry and order.
Perhaps the beauty is hidden in the mathematics of the form,
or the music of the phenomenon. I open now to contact the Source
of all Beauty. I am teachable. I let go of human ideas of perfection
and the hidden idea of imperfection behind. I open to see the
obvious perfection everywhere I look. Wouldn't Omnipresence
be Omni-Perfection? In gratitude I open now. And so it is.

is groundless. This Care sees - and is - the seamless good that I am.

my understanding, my love, my mercy. I cannot know his illusions,
only his truth, with which I am one. For this I am grateful. And so it is.
