‘Twas an exhausting day and work weren’t over yet. I went out and stretched a little and looked above. The clouds started to escort the sun to the infinite terminal that splits heaven and earth and the sun waved its tint saying goodbye after a long and weary day. I treated myself some time to watch the glory of it, and through solitude, the simplicity of the galaxy unveils intelligence. Then it disappeared.
I engraved it in the nook of my mind and went back to the office.
The universe and nature has a habit of giving answers to life’s questions, we just have to stop, look, notice the beauty and have ears.
It was over a year ago and now I’m sharing this to you. Perhaps you knew it. This is a reminder in case you forgot.
1. You are beautiful even if you are bleeding.
When we are broken, we see ourselves as a mess.
I want to tell you that you are beautiful with all your wounds. Your wounds will heal in time and the scars will serve as a reminder that you were wounded and you healed. Scars are not a weakness but a sign that you are braver and stronger with all the battles you overcame.
You are stunning with all your scars.
2. Every sunset is unique so is You.
Every one of us is unique and it comes from within. Our genetic makeup is one component that makes us all different from each other. We are a combination of different DNA cocktails. Our personalities, interests, perspective, habits, goals, creativity, attitude, and experiences differ.
We are all unique so we shouldn’t compare ourselves to others or the standard of society.
You are unique in your way.
3. Sunset is a process so is Life.
Sunset is a process -from its dancing bright yellow rays to the tinge of red, orange, and pink hue.
Life is a process of ups and downs, of light and darkness. There’d be painful and lonely days then comes the joyful days. Life doesn’t always run in a straight line, sometimes it runs in circles, sometimes it goes back and forth. It has a bad habit of unfolding joy in a mixture of bad and good days. We cannot know what real joy is unless we felt pain and this voyage lets us grow. Every success and downfall will mold each of us into a better person.
4. Your problems are small.
The sun descends in the infinite horizon of the vast universe.
Look at your space in the universe and you’ll realize that we are just a speck of dust. You are just one person on a planet with 7.9 billion people. It doesn’t mean that you are of less value. Everyone has their fair share of trouble perhaps the same as yours. Everyone is fighting a battle. It means You are not alone.
5. Everything will come to pass.
Sunset disappears in a matter of moments.
The day will end and it’s not coming back. We should move on because life is a moment in time. Appreciate the beauty of today and enjoy the phase you are in. Put your worries away because every storm will pass. Remember the problems you had 2 years ago? You survived all that and you came out braver, wiser, and stronger.
One day you will just look back and laugh. You will remember this phase as “those good old days”.
6. Hope for tomorrow.
Sunset is beautiful not just because it ends the day beautifully but it promises sunrise. We may not know what would happen tomorrow but the past is past and the future is another day to win or lose. If we lose today then tomorrow we’ve got another chance to win.
How many answers/reminders did I miss because I didn’t have time to listen to it?
How much beauty did I miss because I didn’t have time to notice it?
