About the sunset...

Hello Friends,

Whether I am seeing a sunset in person or simply spending time looking at a picture I am genuinely happy when I get to see one. Perhaps it is the sheer beauty of the multitude of colors, or maybe it’s just the joy it brings to my heart, whatever is the case, I love sunsets. I almost always picture myself being up on a mountain looking out over a valley and viewing the magnitude of all the sunset touches. These words by an American Poet, Elbert Hubbard resound in my ear again and again. 'Know what you want to do, hold the thought firmly, and do every day what should be done, and every sunset will see you that much nearer the goal'.

I think it might be that sunset’s inspire me to dream my dream and to believe that somewhere out there is the reality they will be realized. I must admit I’ve never really understood all that goes into making a sunset so beautiful. I looked it up but it all seemed so complex to understand. In the end I realized that some things are best just accepted. Maybe that’s the real message, meaning we find our joy not from things we truly know or understand, but just because they are. For me seeing each sunset is a renewed experience of happiness and joy. Until next time…
