All Things Beautiful

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.

The Daily Mandala: July 6, 2005

Healing waters swirl beneath my feet. Floating blossoms tickle my spirit. Flowing rivulets converge in rainbow mists around my heart. Following their lead, my thoughts funnel inward to focus on a beautiful dream. ~ ATB

The Daily Mandala: July 5, 2005

All paths lead to the oasis within. I remember it now...this place of healing. Inch by inch and row by row.. with infinite patience, I watch my plantings grow. In simple beauty, each one nurtures my soul. ~ ATB
