Acknowledging the sacred beauty in nature is not often disputed. Acknowledging these same qualities in each other is less common and too often disputed.
During my participation in Sydney Frymire’s The Trek of Your Life™ to Nepal, I experienced and was deeply inspired by the richness of their culture. Their reverent greeting- Namaste- is a salute to the divinity in those they meet, whether friend or strangers. The people of Nepal are intricately aware and conscious of their connection to each other, their land and the sacred powers that hold the balance together.
Oh that we would at least silently recognize the threads that link us to one another … even better if we take the opportunities to audibly honor those who walk across our paths.
Namaste,
