Looking

It's easy to see the light but we need to value the darkness, too. There you will find the lost and lonely who are always left behind.

Anyone can find a rose in a field of dandelions, praise its beauty and bathein its perfume but who will see the value in what appears to be weeds?

We can celebrate the first one to cross the finish line, but who will see the magnificent effort of the one who finished last?

You can stand in awe of the master architects who built the Taj Mahal but who is moved by the maintenance workers who clean and shine it daily?

You can climb to the top of a mountain and pound your chest for having accomplished the feat. But who sees the miracle in the creation of both you and the mountain?



Yes, you are a total summation of all you believe, all you choose to see and all you don't.

Maybe God really gives us just one day to live, but many chances to see it differently.

What have you been missing?
