All Things Beautiful...Through My Kaleidoscope

Welcome to my page of reflections on the mandala art of Henry Reed. Long ago, I envisioned my writing as viewing life through my looking glass…my kaleidoscope. I love the way the picture changes, with each turn of the scope. Yet, it’s always unique and beautiful. After long enjoying Henry’s mandalas in my daily email, I discovered that, beyond looking at the artwork, I was feeling prompted to write words from my heart regarding what was going on in my life. I began my own daily affirmations, or reflections…and posting them here, beginning in August 2009. ~ Nov. 13, 2011, Henry completed his 7th year -- 2,556 mandala paintings -- thus completing a circle. A new one begins. Hope you'll tune in to watch what develops in this blog space of Henry Reed, SusanGail and ATB ~ It's a journey of intuitive heart.

MANDALA ART BY HENRY REED FROM ARCHIVES OF THE DAILY MANDALA

Note to visitors of All Things Beautiful...

Below you will see my reflections on The Daily Mandala from the archives, beginning with Nov. 13, 2004...progressing gradually onward to Nov. 13, 2007, when Henry concluded his seven-year series. To see the newest mandalas, scroll down the archives...to where I first began the reflections in 2009. So, I've a long way to go before I sleep, in these mandala woods, so lovely, dark and deep!

The Daily Mandala: April 23, 2005


An image of Magellan comes to mind, exploring the unknown seas. I, too, must follow my quest...to chart new territories, build new dreams, forge new pathways  of peace and tranquility across the byways and turbulent seas of my heart. ~ ATB

The Daily Mandala: April 21, 2005



Gentle rains upon my  soul,
 healing waters to my heart,
sprinkle down with lovely insights,
spin-washing my dreams,
transforming a desert 
with life-giving art.

The Daily Mandala: April 20, 2005


 I love the center of my healing garden...where I feel the warmth and light of love enveloping me. I love the creativity inspired in me by being here...living in the light of Spirit. I love the beautiful insights that come into my heart, when I take a moment to listen. I love the gentle nudges from the wisdom within. I love to bask in the glow of this infinite heartlight. ~ ATB

The Daily Mandala: April 19, 2005


 Fun! 
I feel surrounded by a gazillion angels in the outfield, all smiling jauntily at me, cheering playfully: "Build it," they insist, "they will come!" ~ATB

The Daily Mandala: April 17, 2005


I see you...you see me...
you see the me
 that I want to be. 
I am you...you are me...
seeing the me I intend to be.
Now, I SEE that me.
Thank you.
