The weekends are always busy and beautiful for me. I woke up early to the song of birds, I heard the cuckoo call around 5 a.m. It was time to go watch the birds, I expected it to be bright but no such luck. It was kind of cloudy and when the sun finally rose up the birdes were singing happily.
I watched a couple of squirrels run up and down a tree a little further from my home. Their tails up in the air, they do make a lot of noise. I love their chatter , sounds kind of cheerful to my ears, they were busy chasing each other around the tree. Then one bold squirrel tried to chase a crow off a branch, now I got curious to see what would happen. The little guy did manage to scare the crow off. That seemed funny to me as crows are notorious for chasing of pigeons and other birds here.
Watching the butterflies trying to warm themselves in the sun was lovely. The sky was beautiful blue with fluffy clouds all around. It was getting really warm by then.
I watched my little niece dance and prance around in a video she made for me, or got her mother to make for me. The sweetness of the little girl having fun in her own innocent way made me think this is how life is meant to be carefree and beautiful.
She lives in a make believe world where only beauty and love resides. She enjoys the appreciation and warmth of the love of her parents and that is her world, there is nothing bad or frightening that her mom's kisses won't drive away. The world of trust in that little girls world makes it such a sublimely beautiful place for her. Everyday is a sublime day in her world.
Just thinking on those lines made me so happy. If only we could trust , love and let our hair down like little children what a beautiful world this would be. I wanted to be a little child like her in my mind. The colors around seemed a little more brighter, the flowers seemed bigger and more beautiful, and life seemed fuller than usual.
I am going to work on my trust and childlike enjoyment I decided and that made this Sunday perfectly beautiful, a #sublimesunday by every definition of the word.
It's all in our head , to enjoy what we have or whine about what we don't; to make the best of what we have or run after more. I am happy to be alive, I am content with what I have and I've decided to let my hair down (literally) and enjoy the peace and beauty around me. These sublime thoughts made the rest of my Sunday sublime.
