Optical Illusion

Last night, if you were blessed with clear skies, when you looked at the moon it may have appeared closer than normal. That indeed was not the case. God didn't decide that June 17, 2008, that we would be blessed with an extra kiss from Heaven. As reported throughout the news world, since the angle of the sun was just right, we got a low full moon. Actually, what causes us to think that this is really a larger looking moon is the relative position of the moon to objects on the ground. So to really get the full effect you couldn't just peer through your window and expect to see a larger looking moon, but you have to get far away from a city skyline or wide open spot where you can see houses in the distance, then the moon will seem to engulf them...

Enough with the science, right?

I woke up this morning thinking and feeling very peaceful and hopeful. I woke up thinking about living my passion(s), and helping others to realize what their passions are too. I first shared this with Handsome, the other person on this planet that is entrusted with the ends and outs of who I REALLY am. He too shared my enthusiasm and thought it was wonderful message for the day. Unlike me, stuck behind a desk at work, he has the freedom to ride his Harley and be with nature and really think about his passions. I on the other hand can only do the imagination thing, get distracted from my work and have to re-work...but that's a start.

One of the greatest illusions is living for in the past and for the future versus living in the now. Now is all that there really is. God/Creator is doing the same thing right at this very moment as 20 million years ago, being God, being Souvereign, being All-knowing, being LoVe! So for this very moment bask in the beauty of now, not the illusion of some thing from March 2006 or some thing you're hoping for on August 2, 2009 at 3:31 PM. Instead, stop, listen, breathe, thank, praise, glorify, laugh, release...for all things are as they should be - no miscalculations, no mistakes, no inconveniences - and whatever it is you're experiencing that isn't love will too pass.

From all directions Blessings, LiGhT & LoVe
