In The Eye Of The Beholder...





...In The Eye Of The Beholder

Life is a mystery. Without mystery the world looks very dark and cold... Like a candle without a flame. The uncertainty of life with its long shadows hiding in the long forgotten corners of our mind, shrouding the next bend in the road of fate... The light from a distant star rises on the horizon, as a lone eagle soars above the clouds, calling us to greet the day. The Great Spirit whispers in the morning wind as if to say, "Aloha! Welcome to another world - another magnificent day of life."We see what we want to see... An ocean teaming with color and life - seems like an endless ocean of grey. A piece of driftwood covered by sand waits to be found by the Master surfer... Clear blue skys are met by tall green palm trees waiting to be cut down and fashioned into some sea worthy vessel. When all the world is astir in light... Some see only darkness.


Since the beginning of time, our imaginations have been fueled by the sparks and embers shooting from the campsite fire. Ablaze in wonder - yet baffled by the quiet and simple things in life... We try to touch the horizon where earth meets sky, and we are moved by the beauty of it all. For those of us who refuse to believe - to believe in the Goodness of life, when all around us stands the evidence of nothing less than Love personified... I say, "Look around and see the beauty in the world of light - and be drawn to the flame we call life..." Beauty - in the eye of the beholder.
