The sun sets on another day…
Today as the sun set the winds were kicking up big time. The skies were light and dark and light again. Powerful gusts blew trees to and fro, the power of nature was in full view of all who opened their eyes to watch. I marveled for a moment as a leaf stirred and spun in the corner, flying up and down, going nowhere but everywhere, buffeted by the wind.
I know a lot of people who feel the same way. Spinning round and round buffeted by the winds of life, never getting anywhere fast, but getting everywhere they are not going quickly. It is amazing those people that seem so busy but are not making headway, that seem so happy, but don’t get to touch happiness often.
We need to stop. (I know someone who used to say that all the time) We need to break free and find a way to be happy even though the winds are pulling us in one direction or another. We need to tack with the wind, and find a way to happiness. It may be tough, but it is worth it. By the way, if you enjoy the ride in the wind and are having fun in that, ignore this post and just go on.
So as the sun sets on another day, the wind will blow some days and the calm will be here on others. Enjoy both, and find a way to ride the wind, and overcome the calm each and every day, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love to the moon and back, and the stars beyond…
