“Here is tonight’s stormy sunset … I am grateful for this gentle reminder that I must simply change where I set my gaze in order to increase peace … My heart beats through my vision … When I am angry, frustrated, or afraid of the horrors and injustices going on in our world, it is easy to lose vision; easy to allow my actions of Love to be diluted by my emotions … And yet tonight I look to the stormy sky and remember to keep my head pointed down to my Here&Now in those times of torment; to simply focus on each moment and find even the smallest way to serve those around me therein; not to live in fear of the thunder or to dread the horrors of the hilly horizon, but simply to shrug my shoulders — and smile — and then boldly set forth into that glorious uncertainty; to simply do whatever Good I can do and then let go of all that results … This is the way great Beauty can come from every Storm.” ~ inspired by Vanessa Curley
