Stormy night , stormy Day ( 07 / 07 / 2016 )

“ Here is tonight ' s stormy sunset ... I am grateful for this gentle reminder that I must simply change where I set my gaze in order to increase Peace . My heart beats through that vision … When I am angry , frustrated , or afraid of the horrors and injustices going on in our world , it is easy to lose focus ; easy to allow my actions of Love to be diluted by my emotions … And yet tonight I look to the stormy sky and remember to keep my head pointed down to my Here & Now in those times of torment ; to simply focus on each moment and find even the smallest way to serve those around me therein ; not to live in fear of the thunder or to dread the horrors of the hilly horizon , but simply to shrug my shoulders -- and smile -- and then boldly set forth into that glorious uncertainty ; to simply do whatever Good I can do and then let go of all that results .
This is the way great Beauty can come from every Storm .”
