The sun sets on another day…
Sunset was hidden behind rain and clouds and a whole lot more. Somewhere high above there was Beauty and I knew that it was awesome.
As the rain fell I listened to the tinkle of the falling drops inside my water spout. I thought about it as I listened to the rhythmic pulse that no one could have expected. I find it quite comforting to hear the droplets falling but it is also usually a ton of water flowing down a single pipe. As I said, who would have ever guessed that it would become musical?
You know sometimes it’s those unexpected items that give us a little joy. All we have to do is watch for them. We face a tremendous number of situations today that could be filled with easy and interesting positives, but often we miss those positives as we look for something completely different. I don’t think it’s so bad to enjoy something completely unexpected.
What about you? Are you so focused on where you’re going with laser vision that you miss the tinkle of rain on a roof? Are you so in search of blue skies that you miss the power and peace of a thunderstorm? Are you so focused on where you want to be that you don’t enjoy where you currently are?
I think it’s an easy question, but one only you can answer.
So as the sun sets on another day, I started going one direction with this post and my mind took it someplace else. I’m kind of thankful for that and all the little sideways movements that I run into often and always. I hope you enjoy the rest of the night and have a fantastic morning filled with fun stuff, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and keep living…
