When the new day's light slowly envelops the landscape, creating a kaleidoscope of color - it is perfectly reminiscent of my childhood, the contentment of youth, where the sun shines clear to your soul
I was raised to see the positive light of things. Perhaps raised is the wrong word, it was present, always. My parents chose to be happy and not fall to discontent. Life was not perfect, but, there was much happiness. And we had each other. Sometimes, that was the best part, especially as we grew into adults.
Let my heart breathe for a moment or three
Easy to get caught up in reminders of the past
Preparations for the future
Forgetting what happens
When it's all scattered to the day
The prevailing beauty of the day keeps my head looking down, obscuring the shadows from crowding my life. Illuminate the grace of the day.
May there always be a bright spot of beauty in my day. That is why there is #alwaysaflower.
Thirty seconds too late, but, a parting shot as I head off into the sunset. This shot is for @sepiasaturday by
@old-guy-photos. And for the record,
@c0ff33@, the shot is kind of nondescript, but, they really are pelicans, I promise you.
And just like that, this post is over. Come back tomorrow and we'll do it again! I also just realized today is Friday.
Le Sigh.
Thank you for visiting my post 馃挅 Don't ever forget what a wonderful world we live in, people. Some days, it is not as easy to see,just how wonderful it really is. For me, I try to do my part. Kindness counts. Wherever you go, whatever you do.
Shall I compare thee to a summer鈥檚 day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer鈥檚 lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance, or nature鈥檚 changing course untrimmed:
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow鈥檚t,
Nor shall death brag thou wander鈥檚t in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow鈥檚t,
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
Shakespeare
