SUNRISE - SUNSET



Every time I see a sunset or think of one, my soul soars high up in the clouds. Might even take me higher to heaven's gate. I can't imagine how something as magnificent as a sunrise or sunset could go past our senses or being. It's magical. But why must it be so fleeting? Would it not be wonderful that it stay and wrap its magical glow around our souls forever. I'd like to be in that moment for a lifetime. Wish!

Fleeting.... that's what it's saying. Like everything is fleeting. Life is fleeting.... the good, bad, sad, joy, grief, fear, worry... and everything else laid down on our plates. Everything that comes to us come for some reason but certainly and sadly not to stay. When these things of life - love - experiences have done its job it moves on to touch other lives too. But unfailingly leaves behind those precious memories which hold us close to life. Memories which hold a promise.... Like a sunset assures us of a new morn... a new day... a new life... a new you.

Cherish the sunrises and sunsets of your life.

Blessings to everyone.

  1. A beautiful post.But sunrises and sunsets are ordained by God to come and go providing daily opportunities to savour their beauty.Likewise some experiences in life like happiness have their vicissitude only to resurface again.

  2. Mother Nature does not only illustrate God's magnificence but also shows that she and us are connected in the same tapestry of life and living.

    Happiness is often more subjective ... is defined by the person and not the other way around. It can stand as constant and unchangeable as the person who wisely is able to see and find it readily in his heart. It is not totally dependent on externalities. Happiness, the kind that truly matters, is created within and not without. This I think.. man has yet to learn well.

    Thanks for dropping by and sharing your thoughts. It's appreciated. Blessings to you and your family.

  5. Ellen,

    Good things in life always seem short but sweet while sad ones seem to last forever. We need to learn to live life facing both with equal positive feeling.

    Take care
