walking in beauty: a full moon reflection on gratitude, nature, and the beauty way
Happy (un-snowy) full moon blessings sweet souls✨🌞✨I was just thinking of the Navajo prayer reflecting ‘Beauty Way’, a concept where you live life looking thru the lens of gratitude, well-being, compassion and appreciation for all that we are blessed with…within ourselves, within our communities, the world, with nature, and even in uncertainty, grief, or hardship. I believe there are different variations of this blessing, but thought I’d share:
“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 beneath my feet may I walk.
With Beauty all around me may I walk.
In old age wandering on a trail of Beauty,
Living again may I walk.
All is completed in Beauty.
All is completed in Beauty.”
