The influence of art,
music
and nature
connects us with transcendent,
ineffable,
numinous reality,
and restores,
revitalizes,
nurtures,
nourishes 
our soul in ways we do not understand.

We experience it
without being able to explain it.
And talking about it
breaks the spell
and snaps us back into the world
of normal,
apparent,
reality.

But, something happened.
Something stirred to life within.
Something reminded us of something,
connected us with something,
if only for a moment.

And we are better for it.
More alive because of it.
Aware of living between worlds,
visible grounded in invisible.
Wonder of wonders.
Hallelujah.
Amen.
