Sunrise... Sunset...



Ever notice how you cannot tell a sunrise from a sunset in a picture?  The beauty is always the thing we appreciate.  The direction of the view only comes to us as we compare the surroundings to some known object.  If such an object does not exist we simply cannot tell what we are exactly looking at.  Sunrise? Sunset!

Nature offers us a glimpse into our own lives.  We cannot always tell the difference between our horizons.  It might be morning and the start of some new day in our experience in our life.  Or, it might be the last ray of hope we will ever see!

It is at these times of hazy shades of endless light  that we sometimes seem to wander away from our true self.  In times like these, our sense of reality is often shattered.  We start to wonder was it all really worth it?  We start looking for some indication that our sunset is really just a grand sunrise!  We rationalize our realities away.

Instead, we need to let the wind blow and just enjoy the view.  Others may laugh at us!  Others may scoff!  But the time we spend taking in the beauty of the whole experience is the moment we enter into the true meaning of what it is to be alive.  To be free.  To be human!

So, sunset or sunrise - Take the time to feel the warmth of the sun and let joy wash over you like an oncean wave!  Life is beautiful!
