Yesterday was busy day and quite windy. I have had headaches off and on for the past 2 days. I hadn't yet walked the dog and looked out the window in my home office and saw the most amazing sunset. I got the collar and leash and my dog and I walked out into the sky ablaze with gold, pink and red clouds. The wind had died down and it was absolutely calm. My dog and I changed our normal route to be able to walk towards the sunset. Roof lines and trees were silhouetted against the ever deepening colours of the sky. It was so calm, so still - a magical experience. I wondered how many people witnessed this beauty - how many were hunched over a computer screen ( as was I) or glued to the TV, oblivious to the show of beauty outside. Our life is full of beauty and magic, if only we take the time to see, if only we have eyes to see. I felt in awe of this wonderful display, in awe of the beauty and stillness . Albert Einstein once said: "there are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle". I choose the latter - to live and witness the miracles that abound in my daily life.
In gratitude for the awesome power and beauty of our universe,
Marg
