Bigger things.

Have you ever looked up at the sky on a perfectly cloudless day, and seen it so perfectly blue? So perfect, and such blue that you can hardly believe it's real. And you realize it's not just one shade of blue, but every shade of blue known, and millions unknown.

Ever look at a tree, not even a tree, a cluster of leaves, a single leaf, and see something bigger? Marveled at how something so small, could produce fuel for something so huge. Watched as the sunlight reflected off the surface. Seen it turn colors as the seasons change.

Ever stare into the ocean, and see something more than water? Look into the face of another and wonder if something else is out there than this? Watch the sunset and wonder what's beyond? See the stars and the moon, and be left breathless?

And if you keep staring, and if you keep thinking, you may just think you catch a glimpse of eternity. You travel a path that awakens your heart and your spirit, and even if you continue about your day, you're somehow changed by those moments. The ordinary is not satisfying anymore. The routine is a steep sided rut you feel you should escape.

Congratulations, you are awakening.
