Sacred Ground
My sculptures are little poems about the nature of god and peace that comes from knowing that we are connected to greater truths. ~ Hank Kaminsky

feel the sacredness
let your feet honor the earth
with each loving step
~
This quote and casting are great reminders for me that we are always standing on sacred ground. The key is to put our awareness on our connection with the earth and what a gift it is to be alive. Here in Fayetteville, we are also fortunate to have Hank Kaminsky, a local artist who uses his art to advocate for peace, equality, and reverence for life.
May we feel and appreciate the sacred in everyday life.
So true….we are always standing on sacred ground., We have lost touch with that simple truth. Love this expression of art and many years ago spent some time in Fayetteville. Enjoy the day – Janet 🙂

Wow. That is long before I arrived in 1994. I heard it was a cute hippie town back then. 🙂

Loved these quotes. Brought back memories of going barefoot most of the time to “feel” the earth.

Sounds like some good memories Claire, and definitely grounding! In fact, that would have been a nice link to write about grounding on the earth too. 🙂

During my training, I came across an article about how we need to spend time with our feet literally touching the earth – every day – so that we create positive energy for ourselves and make a natural connection to the earth. Though I don’t actually do this every day, I have made an intention to try to get my feet touching the grass in my yard more often. Your haiku is a gentle reminder to strive to do this even more than I do now. 🙂

Yes, I’ve played with grounding my feet, but don’t have a good place to do so where I’m currently living. Maybe my new place. But shoes or not, we can always tune into the sacred connection.
