The sun sets on another day…
The sun fell behind the mountains and the sky lit up. I couldn’t see the sunset but I could see the colors all around. As I gazed upon it all I felt good about the colors of creation and I could do nothing but feel good about the way the world terms.
I was having a good discussion with someone about who we are and who I am. I felt good about it and I felt that although things are not always defined clearly, they are always defined.
In the discussion, this person said things always happen for a reason and they work out good. That’s probably the most basic way to look at it and quite real as things always do happen for a reason, and pretty much things always do work out good.
That we may not realize that in the moment, but later as we look back on difficult times and frustrating frustrations it is often obvious how little the moment truly meant. It is often obvious that what we thought was the worst thing in our life, wasn’t.
Now I’m not saying there aren’t bad times. Between cancer and dozens of debilitating diseases and dozens more that take your life for no apparent reason, there can be bad days. There are people who don’t want to see the good in you or don’t see what you are in earnest and with that there are bad days. There are situations that are difficult to control or get out of that cause bad days. I acknowledge this.
What I’m saying is those self-same items may not be affecting you the way you thought they were, and that the world wasn’t quite as bad as you thought it was in the moment. That in the moment thing can get you every time.
Everyday is a chance to be good or better or the best that you can be. Keep being good, or better, or the best that you can be.
So as the sun sets on another day, find your place in the world. Realize that it is your place in the world. Own it and enjoy it and make the world a happy place for you those people around, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and make the world yours…
