I waltz into the “Begonia House” at the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens.
The structure is brimming with begonias that boggle my mind.
Every petal a plié.
Every ruffle a petticoat.
The pendulous flowers beckon me to dance.
No one is watching, so I take a tiny twirl.
Languidly outstretch an arm.
I close my eyes and sense Presence.
The Creator is within the flowers.
The Divine is all around me
encouraging me to participate in the Dance of Life,
encouraging me to invite others to this great celebration.
Would you care to dance?

Take a walk with me by reading my daily devotional book, Meditations on Mendocino by Sondra Sula. Available on Amazon in paperback or Kindle versions.
If you’d prefer a daily river walk, Reflections on the Fox River and Beyond by Sondra Sula, might just be the book for you.
