The sun sets on another day…
It was a clear and beautiful sunset and I stood outside in warm weather wondering if it would ever end. Unfortunately it was gone in an instant but fortunately the beauty stayed with me.
I was looking at the sky this evening and noticing how clear it was. Not a cloud anywhere. As I did so I felt good about the world simply because sometimes on a clear day you can see forever. It’s a neat idea seeing forever, and in the end the idea is that the only way to see forever is to close your eyes.
I know it’s a play on words but there are many things in the world that are very difficult to explain and those things are sometimes the easiest. The concept of forever and looking out and understanding or seeing forever is beyond our ken. We think we know, but it is far beyond anything we can understand.
how is it then that a moment sometimes feels like forever. Imagine the child at 3:14 waiting for school to get out only to realize that that last minute till 3:15 is going to take a few more hours.
Imagine for a moment the not so happy employee waiting for 5:00 to roll around and being lost in forever. Imagine finding the perfect person and being intertwined in who they are and a mere second seeming like forever. Weather good or bad we decide. I gave two potentially negative statements but in reality only we determine what lasts forever in our minds and in our hearts.
When that child is at 3:14 if they focus on the positives that minute will be gone in an instant. All of the choices that we make are aligned and based on our ability to understand that we control our time.
It’s with that in mind and a clear vision of what is that I am happy that you are here and I hope that your few moments with me will be exciting and positive and we will find a way to forever, together.
So as the sun sets on another day, enjoy yourself now and forever. Make today the greatest day of your life. And keep being you every day, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and it’s a clear way to forever…
