The sun sets on another day...

You have to wonder, er, well I have to wonder. It is beautiful outside, warm and inviting to all, with the heat of the sun embracing us with its warmth and making the land flourish. Our seasons are so complex that in mythology we explained them away as a fight between gods, and the goddess Demeter causing the seasons over a bad deal with her amazingly beautiful daughter. It was much easier to consider this for ancient man than the currents and eddies of the jet stream, wind patters, tilt of the earth in relation to the sun and a hundred other technical reasons. It is always easier to give a simple solution and just move on never realizing the more complex solution even exists.

So as the sun sets on another day we consider a bit of mythology and simply appreciate Persephone. Her radiant beauty fills us with awe, and her fair wisdom makes us smile with delight as she exists on earth. (In myth) When she leaves, we will be saddened knowing she is gone, but happy that someday we will see her again, and then the world will be a better place.

(You can read the myth in a variety of places online or in "Bulfinch's Mythology". (Don't translate it from the Latin, it is rough, or was when I did it a long time ago)

Sleep sweet, dream a little dream, enjoy imagination, and love life more every day, no matter what...

The sun sets on another day...

I met a great person today from a difficult country. He told of a sad story where his home is no longer his due to war, pain, didrespect, and ignorance. I was amazed at his patience and positivity as he drew a picture of me. (Scary)

He stated in our conversation that home to him was Madrid where his good memories were experienced. 

Shouldn't we all feel the same way and make our home where our heart is? I think so as it makes us better people. If we live for the.positive we can be like th is man and not some of the pained people we have all met. We should be like this man, positive in spite of the darkness and a light to us all.

So as the sun sets on another day, trust your heart, and feel that where your heart has been has been your home, then keep those fond memories, no matter what.

Sleep sweet, love life, and enjoy home....

The sun set son another day...

On the surface of the water the reflection of the sunset shimmers and amazes us all with its myriad of hues. Underneath a million things abound from outstanding views of a thousand thousand unique landscapes to the joys and pain of life and death. It is all a mystery until you peer beneath the surface and pay attention.

So too are people sometimes a wonderful shimmering view of happiness and contentment to us all...on the surface, but underneath there can be so much more. The point is, the surface does not show us much and we have to listen and learn to know more about a person and truly began to understand their viewpoints. Take your time, listen, learn and discuss, then perhaps you will know them more.

So as the sun sets on another day, take some time, learn and love, and remember that what you see, is not always what is there...

Sleep sweet, love life, and smile, just smile, everyday...

The sun sets on another day...

The Windswept Sands of the beach are caressed by the warm glow of the Evening Sun. The warmth extends not just at the surface but far below penetrating deeply and changing the sands for all time.

Sounds good doesn't it. If only it were all that easy and the sun would change things for all time. Perhaps it does and perhaps we as people affect others for all time by simple actions. Perhaps we need to consider daily just how deeply a simple word can affect others lives and even our own. There are so many times that a simple word would make a person's day complete or destroy them utterly. In my opinion we should spend our time attempting to make others happy and avoid those things meant to hurt or destroy for as long as we can. Perhaps if we just took a lesson from the Sun and the Wind and the Earth all things would be a little better as we could work together for a common goal and maybe start accepted each other.

So as the sun sets on another day consider your words and actions carefully. Remember that everything you do reflects on you and make the mission of the world your mission. 

Sleep sweet, love life, and be the person you should be no matter what...
