I'm sure people are wondering why my wide eyes are fixed on this sky. The colour is greyish, but something about it has me captivated. It looks as though there are brush strokes in the clouds and the incredible light behind displays them perfectly. Beautiful.

Something within me wakes up. If eternity is set in our hearts then I'm so aware of it now, in this moment. Alive. Everything rests. Longings are still. There is more, but I'm engrossed even in this first taste. I want to absorb this, to drown in it. To be changed by it instead of walking away as other things spill over and crowd it. Falling back into craving and striving. Walls, barriers and distractions. What if, instead, this reality could flood into the rest of life? It would change everything.
