Paint Surroundings

"There is really only one way to restore a world that is dying

and in disrepair: to make beauty where ugliness has set in."

Toko-pa Turner

When we take our individual gift and apply it in unique ways, we create beauty in the world.  If a friend is grieving, and we are silently present, we help lift the darkness of sorrow.  If we can assist an elder in need in our own unique way, they feel seen.  Both gestures bring beauty into life.

It is through giving that the world can become a better place.  Within our own life experiences, there are endless opportunities to bring living color to floundering drab hues.  By offering numerous small gestures, we are assisting the world to shift and heal.

There is beauty in the act of giving whether we are picking up random debris or admiring a tree.  As we view the world through eyes of love, and utilize authentic gifts, we paint our surroundings with beauty.
