A Deeper Look

How many years have you been alive? How many days have you lived? In the past year, how many sunsets have you savored like sweet sauce on you tongue? How many have you cherished? How many have you seen or even noticed? There is something beautiful to be tasted everyday. There is at least one thing to adore every morning. It does not have to be new, old things can whisper you their faithful glory if you know how to listen. A clock, a chair, a piano, a house, a pitcher, a vase. Stop and stare. They will find it rude, and they will probably enjoy your company. But do not forget, new things can be enjoyed just as well. A flower, a rain shower, a baby. Let your appreciation play like a child in the yard. It is healthy; the little guy needs to get some exercise every once in a while.
