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!

Doodling around with the creative spirit brings a smile to my face, as I realize the quiet pattern beneath the pen is waiting patiently to be revealed. ~ ATB

The Daily Mandala: June 2, 2005


Hope lines the places that seem like road blocks on this journey to unity. While there may appear to be struggle, the entire pattern has yet to be revealed. My heart knows that peace resides in the center of all things. I trust the design, because I trust the creator. In patience, I keep moving. Yes, it's going to be a beautiful new day. ~ ATB

The Daily Mandala: May 31, 2005





The signature of my heart is stamped upon all that I do, all that I create, all that I feel and express out into the world. I carry this little heart in my pocket, wherever I go. This heart of my creative spirit daily reminds me of all things beautiful, possible and dreamable.   ~ ATB

The Daily Mandala: May 29, 2005


 Radiance streams from within the prism of a starry night that glows flowing with the rising rainbow sun. The power of light breaks hearts of glass into transforming aspects of colorful possibilities that sparkle and shimmer in exquisite beauty. ~  ATB

This is a day of new beginnings, a day for adventures to contemplate, for new horizons to wrap heart and mind around. I wait patiently within this circle I'm in. I envision the action steps I can take for mapping out this beautiful journey. ~ ATB
