The sun sets on another day…
I wonder where the rain was coming from. It was not supposed to rain, but when it comes to weather there is no guarantee, just a bunch of messy moments.
I laughed for a little while today and watched a baby smile as they learned more about their environment. It’s always amazing looking at babies and realizing what a blank slate they are. It made me ask myself questions, and try to think about answers. As I did so I thought for a moment about Yoda from Star Wars as the future is not set and it is always in motion.
The little girl I laughed with will grow up in a wonderful new world. There are so many possibilities to learn and to know more and even more possibilities to excel. Some people will find their way quickly and in doing so they will become the guideline for a new world. Some people will not. Some people will find the easy way and never strive for more. Always in motion is the future.
I have talked about a book before called Hope for the Flowers. In the book The caterpillars all tried to find their way to the top but none of them knew why and in the book eventually two of them learned why they were always striving to get higher. It wasn’t following what everybody else did but instead following their hearts it had them move forward. There is an intensity in that and a lesson as well.
I hope this child grows up to realize their potential. I hope this child creates a world that is even better and is based on truth. Mostly I hope this child learns to love deeply and with the power that is a force to be reckoned with. I have found that the passion inside of us helps us find our own way.
So as the sun sets on another day, the world is a fantastic place full of amazement. To a child the world is a blank canvas to paint their life upon. Help children along and find your own way as well as the world expands and becomes a magnificent painting. You know, I’m not sure what’s up there but everyone seems to be climbing. Maybe, just maybe, we should focus on being ourselves rather than going the way that everyone else goes. Maybe we should define ourselves every day, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and keep being you…
