The sun sets on another day…
Sunset slid in like a baseball fight for home base. I felt it was not only spectacular, but it lit the sky like subtle fireworks with heart.
I was listening to some classic music repeat over and over in my head. The nimble tune was cute and over and over it went. I enjoyed the song, but I have to say that the repetition got to be a little much. Repetition is something that can be a good thing or be a bad thing. On the good side, you can learn a lot by seeing and doing the same thing over and over. It is an easy way to see the world.
It’s also easy to see when the world is different, even a little. When you have very little differences in your life any differences stand out quite well so this can be a good path but it offers virtually no growth.
On the other hand if you are adventurous all the time you may grow tremendously but never set down the roots that you need. It could be a tremendous learning experience and as you learn you may find that you long for something repetitive. It seems like there is no good answer.
I hate to quote ancient wisdom but perhaps the answer is balance. Maybe we need to spend a little more time balancing out the good and the bad, the repetition and the excitement, the fire and the ice. Maybe the answer is that there is no good answer except how you are dealing with something at the moment. I can pretty much get behind that.
So as the sun sets on another day, let’s lead a good life. Let’s make every day a memorable day whether it’s repetitious or spectacularly new. Let’s find a way to live the life that we deserve each and every day, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and rinse…
