The sun sets on another day…
As I write this, I am watching for sunset, and I fear I may only see a few speckled shards of light. Instead, I am surrounded by clouds and rain, being assailed with water. Oh well.
If you have ever met me, you would know that I like interacting with people. There are those people that are positive and amazing to interact with, and occasionally there are some who are full of disease and mistrust. I take the high road and, in doing so, try to see the best of people even if they’re not ready for it.
I was at an event today and interacted with a significant number of people who were positive, fantastic, and unique. It’s not that these people were any better than all the other people in the world. It is just that they positively presented themselves both to each other and to me.
Among all the others who made me smile today, I met two young ladies selling bubble tea. For those of you that think bubble tea is weird, you are probably right, but it is fun to have a drink and enjoy something a little different. As I started talking to these individuals, I found they were full of dreams, aspirations, and high hopes for the world. It is this incredible innocence that made them so special. They were unsullied by the delusions of negativity that so many get lost in. I found myself lost in amazement at the energy and excitement that these two front to the world around them. I am sure that everyone who purchased from them today got more than a drink and walked away with positivity and hope.
Most people know the story of Pandora’s Box. Pandora opened the box that her father had told her to leave alone. When she opened it, disease, pestilence, and many horrors of the world were released ,and as she closed the box, all that remained was hope. With that in mind, I say that people like the individuals I met today, not just two but many, give the world hope. I hope they realize how spectacular they are and can continue to see the world in a new and exciting way each day.
So as the sun sets on another day I am impressed by the world right now. I only ask that you open your mind in your heart as well and find the courage see the positives in other people. I know it means putting your heart out there but I know if we all can do it and make the world a better place, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and feel the passion in your soul…
