A Balcony is the window to life

[An-Hu-Nu]

There are many ways to classify life and what it means to you, but I will take you on a visual tour of what I feel life is all about!

 

In all things there is perception, it creates diversity and as I always say, life is like a box of crayons, some days you use more black or grey and other days more color, but in the end it is all about finding joy in what you are, what you do and what you see and feel.  So take up your crayons and color like mad!  Who cares what it look like, it is about expressing what you feel!

 

I took these pictures from my Balcony, at the days when I did not know any more, or when the shadows fell over me, and I felt "Why the hell do I bother to get up in the morning!"  I would come home and walk out on the balcony and this is what waits for me.  When I stand there looking at that, I say thank you Gaia for reminding me that each morning I wake up is a new day filled with potential, and no matter how you "Failed" by your own standards, the sunset reminds you that tomorrow, will be a new day, filled with even better potential.  All we have to do is keep our eyes to the sky!

All architecture is great architecture after sunset; perhaps architecture is really a nocturnal art, like the art of fireworks.

Gilbert K. Chesterton

 

A Blood moon! When I look at this picture I think of my Dragon Guardian.  It looks like the eye of a Dragon watching over us.

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.
Rabindranath Tagore

Even on the darkest day, the light will find you!

How strange this fear of death is! We are never frightened at a sunset. George MacDonald

When the storms in your heart, want to drown you, there is always rays of hope, waiting for you to reach out and touch it.

When everything look the same, be the light that shine in a different way!  

Know what you want to do, hold the thought firmly, and do every day what should be done, and every sunset will see you that much nearer to your goal.  Elbert Hubbard

Half a moon, half a werewolf!

Lost, yesterday, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered for they are gone forever. Horace Mann

There is nothing is more musical than a sunset. He who feels what he sees will find no more beautiful example of development in all that book which, alas, musicians read but too little - the book of Nature. Claude Debussy

The true purpose of education is to teach a man to carry himself triumphant to the sunset.
Liberty Hyde Bailey

 

This dear friends is what I feel life is about.  No matter what hit us on the stormy sea, that is our life, when we lift our eyes from the toss and turn of the water, to the sky, it changes our perspective.  Focusing on the beauty of the sky and the light, you will no longer feel the fear and turmoil of the storm.

 

There are so much great things in our lives, yet we tend to miss that.  We feel that life is unfair to us, but in reality we are unfair to life.  Life give us all we need, it is us that in our greed expect more, than what we need!

 

When you feel you can't go any further and the hole you are in are swallowing you, stop looking at the side of the hole, lift your eyes and look for the beauty above the hole.  Focus on that, and before you realize it, you will find that the hole was but a depressing in the road of our lives.

 

Nothing is as bad as we perceive it to be!
