If you walked along a beach and started to count grains of sand you could never surpass the multitude of stars. Trillions of stars out there and here we are able to enjoy the scene. We are all made of that stuff.
Ponder today that you are made of stars.
One of my favorite affirmations…we are all made of starstuff.

I awoke this morning to grayness. All lost in the cloud and with much needed moisture for the tinder dry forests.
As interesting as the black and white world seems, don’t dwell in it. I know you long for just a bit of color in the scenes of your life. And during this time remember that the world is full of grays.
Today add some color to a moment. At the very least shift the world to gray.
Nature conspired to teach me a lesson that grayness is all around. very few things are black and white so we shouldn’t ever get stuck thinking this way.

2020 seems upside down bit we can look at it differently and see some normal and good. Today, turn a problem you have upside down and see how it looks. It might not be as troublesome as you thought.
I think if I completely change my perspective, my body position, that I will see things differently and better

The leaves are gone; blown away by the wind. I love the wind but sometimes I just want to sit quiet and enjoy the views without the chaos. It’s the way of the world and it’s up to us to create that quiet place inside. How will you handle your chaos today?
This was a meditative thought. That I’m like a stone sitting in a river or in a windstorm. I remain though I feel events move around me. My core values are solid.

Every sunrise is different. Different colors caused by different sky conditions; different patterns caused by different clouds. All just as beautiful. What differences will you make or see today??
Every day is different and yet basically I am the same. My sense of being, my core values all solid if I have prepared correctly)
Around this time of year and around Feb 20th the Sun comes up in this cusp of Crescent Mountain. We call it the Bowl of Fire. Never gets old waiting for this event.
Do you wait for a special occasion in the sky??
We choose to wait on things; to expect a certain future. We can also use our minds to see a different point of view. That neural plasticity prepares what we know in a way to explore the unknown. I don’t want to just meet an unknown, I want to explore it. Looking at those different experiences never gets old.
Through a lens, the world is a little distorted and can be a bit fantastical…full of beauty, mist, mystery and adventure. For just a moment, lose yourself in that story today.
I don’t know if I’ll be this way again but I sure did enjoy the views.
Enjoy a view today.
If I could hide the world,
I’d place it in a field of autumn grass.
Like a little bubble
Hidden from those that would cause harm
Free to lay in peace basking
in the sunshine of a warm day
Ignoring the pains of yesterday
Watching the clouds go by
Enjoying today.
