the sun.
go.
down.

I am breathless at this moment as I sit in Newport Oregon watching the most beautiful setting of the sun I have ever seen, in this moment. We only have this moment.
Every single time I look up from my writing, there is a more and more beautiful canvas of a sky than there was just a moment ago. As the sun sets further and further, seemingly right down into the ocean, the sky becomes more and more dramatic. The water darkens and the white cap waves of the day are replaced by the black shadowy ones of the night. The sky becomes a more fiery blend of red, vibrant orange, deep smokey lavender and a range of blues that would drift you right off into dreamland.
The beauty of the earth is totally amazing. I saw a reflection of myself with the sky for a backdrop today in the eye of a horse. As I stood there petting him, I had a flash of a thought. Not even a conscious thought, more like a flash of slight exposure as one of my synapses fired. The fraction of a concept I was exposed to was that the horse and I shared a moment of reality together. Whether YOU believe it or not does not matter to me in the least, because I have faith that is exactly what happened.
To be in this wonderfully amazing place and not have a feeling of something bigger than ourselves in my opinion is a tragedy.
A very sad place to live for a heart, in the body of a man that does not truly see.
I am so grateful for the wide openness of my heart that I am able to let go, and lay myself down in a realm of complete vulnerability. I am confident that I will receive what I have given. I have nothing but love to truly give and we are better off for all that we let in.
Faith, like the ocean, always wins!!!
I love you Angel girl! Yes it is a beautiful world! I love those moments when you see into and beyond the beauty that it is and really feel a presence, a knowing that you are a part of all there is. There is a Course in Miracles quote that I have on a card in my kitchens reads, "God himself is incomplete without me" . . . . .
ReplyDeleteWow, that's almost incomprehensible isn't it?
Years before, I would have thought "that is a total puffed up humanistic thought". I'm so glad I have grown enough to be able to understand that thought. Every time I say it to myself I'm blown away and grateful for that knowing. Peace and Love in this world, please!
