“PEOPLE ARE JUST AS WONDERFUL AS SUNSETS, IF WE CAN LET THEM BE.
IN FACT, PERHAPS THE REASON WE CAN TRULY APPRECIATE A SUNSET IS THAT WE CANN’T CONTROL IT!
WHEN I LOOK AT A SUNSET, I DON’T FIND MYSELF SAYING: “SOFTEN THE ORANGE A LITTLE BIT OVER THERE IN THE RIGHT HAND CORNER, AND A LITTLE MORE PURPLE ALONG THE BASE, PLEASE; A LITTLE MORE PINK IN THE CLOUD COLOUR!”
NO, I DON’T DO THAT, AND NEITHER DO YOU!
I DON’T TRY TO CONTROL A SUNSET!
I WATCH IT WITH AWE AS IT UNFOLDS -
AND I LIKE MYSELF BEST WHEN APPRECIATING THE UNFOLDING OF A LIFE!”
Truth is like a field of a thousand stones,
the unwise picks up a stone and says,
“I’ve found the truth”.
The wise will turn over all one thousand stones.
