Are There Really Colors of the Wind?

by Rev. Peggy Rivera, O.M.C.

Rev. Peggy RiveraI was listening to a beautiful song that was being sung by the Indian woman Pocahontas in the animated film titled the same; and one of the phrases in the song was, “Have you ever seen the colors of the wind?”

It gave me a moment to pause and reflect. I thought about sitting on the beach, feeling the wind caress my face and the scent of the ocean on the breeze. I remembered how the sun warmed my body as I melted softy into the warm sand. I heard the soft melodic rhythm of the waves as they gently rolled across the shore and the seagulls singing with delight as they hungrily soared above the sea in search of their next meal. Children were laughing in the distance as they ran splashing into the cool sparkling crystal water. I remember how blissful I felt lying there in my cocoon of peace.

In this cluster of memories, I realize that I can see the colors of the wind and how they express all the beauty that surrounds us, comforts us and pleases us. Now, as I think back about times like these, I believe that God is always finding a way to comfort us in our feeling of separation. He allows the creative forces to heal us of our fear and loneliness, even when we forget Who we really are. He has provided that spark of Love that encapsulates us wherever we are.

We can feel loved in the arms of the mother earth as we sojourn here, searching for our way back Home. Although I’ve heard it said that we cannot see God, I realize that we really do see God in all things. When we focus on Love and Peace, we see God as clearly as we see the colors of the wind. The beauty of the earth and the love we have for each other is the same as the colors of the wind. We are all expressions of Gods Love.
