The island of Kauai took my breath away as we sailed into the harbor for the first time. Silken shrouds of mist draped softly along the contours of the deep green peaks that jutted skyward from the bluest ocean I had ever seen. In the early morning light, little spots of sunlight played with the translucent clouds and glinted shyly off of the backs of persistent little waves. The only sounds were the muffled chug of the ship’s engine slowly churning us toward the little harbor and soft slap of the water on the hull. A silent breeze lovingly caressed my hair and face. I breathed it in. It was magical… and unlike the fleeting initial magic of some new experiences, this place continues to mesmerize me. I now think I know why. This place happened to coincide with a time of deepening spiritual connection to life for me; the life that we all are. Life has always mesmerized me, and on that day even more so with this island’s beauty and mystery. I now know that the wonderful feeling of peace, calm and delight was insight and the opening of my heart, beyond the place.
The beauty of the earth is one conduit to the inexplicable experience of our spirit.
