We have so much power to manipulate our environment and setting that we often forgo nature’s blessings of peace, healing, and affirmation unintentionally. As I sat here by my table, lights off in my house, I felt the sun set. My mind following the brightness from the last strong rays of the evening to the calming flow of dusk. Details turn to silhouettes and my mind begins to widen, soften, deepen. I wonder how many arguments, nervous breakdowns, poor decisions, and anxiety filled nights could have been avoided if I let the sun do what it has always done to mankind, set itself down and our wakeful intensity with it.
