Sunset

A pessimist sees only the dark side of the clouds, and mopes; 

a philosopher sees both sides, and shrugs; 

an optimist doesn't see the clouds at all -

 he's walking on them.  

~Leonard Louis Levinson

Sunset

Have you ever watched the sun slowly descend for the night leaving streaks of beautiful colors strewn across the sky?  It is absolutely wondrous.  It can take your breath away and leave you in awe.  That's if you ever look up long enough to see it.  We spend most of the time looking down or even looking behind us.  We usually don't spend a lot of time looking up.  If we did, we would realize that the world is so much greater.  We are truly apart of something bigger.  There is beauty that surrounds us every single day but we miss it constantly because our gaze is fixed on something that is below us or behind us, not right in front of us.  We rarely stop to see the bigger picture.  Realize that you are significant, just a like a sunset and the more you take the time to cherish what life is showing you, the more you open up your future to amazing opportunities.
