Welcome! I am a contemplative thinker and photographer from Colorado. In this blog, you'll discover photographs that I've taken on my hiking and backpacking trips, mostly in the American West. I've paired these with my favorite inspirational and philosophical quotes - literary passages that emphasize the innate spirituality of the natural world. I hope you enjoy them!

We are called to mirror to others their own divine self.


Each of us has a high calling: to serve as a mirror in which others can discover their own sacred nature, their own true self.  We embody this mirror best when we seek always to discover the goodness of another person.
