Watching the sunrise

This morning when I woke up it was clear to me that I needed to watch the sun rise.  I’ve seen plenty of sunrises before however I have never fully been present to them as I was this morning.  I wonder how many things in my life have I experienced and yet haven’t fully experienced?

I liken the sunrise to a blank canvas that is starting to have colour added to it.  At first the canvas has very little colour or definition.  However as more colour is added it becomes clear that the outline was always there, you just couldn’t see it before.  And this…I liken to our lives.

In our search for more, do we actually allow ourselves to fully experience our current lives?  Do we acknowledge what is right here right now?  Or have we already started our search making the assumption that the more is out there as opposed to being right here?

Maybe it’s time to stop the search out there so be can marvel about the genius and magnificence that is ‘in here’ where we live.
