11 May

After all the lights of evening celebration have dimmed, and crowds dispersed, oftentimes one is left with an emptiness and thirst for greater adulation, an occasion new to bring one closer to that joyful feeling waiting in the wings. But what if, as the lights are dimmed, a new vision awaits you there, finer and more spectacular than ever man created fair? And what if you were told that this vista awaits you even now, waiting patiently for you to wonder at the distant stars?

It is so easy to forget what we have, and take for granted that which we have always known. But grand it is, the night sky clear, when all about are clues that we belong to a wider spectrum of a universe far more diversified than we’ll ever know. And nightly the show goes on, and comets grace the sky; all manner of fireworks exist if only we would eye this brilliant masterpiece, and be inspired.

Boredom is a source of sadness, a weary traveller’s plea. But when we are at one with all, and display a child-like curiosity, then all the so-called mundane things would be a source of joy, and we would embrace with love the everyday, in the here and now, and be thankful for each moment of nature’s celebration, in all its glory there.

So seek not after false illusions, nor fly like moth to flame. Embrace the supernatural and keep your feet of centered, earthly aim. Fly the freedom flag and hanker not for spoils other than the one’s which serve to uplift you to even greater heights of pure imagination and visions grand to come.
