'The Sunny Side of a Hill'
The cold frozen valley is behind me. On the other side of the hill, the snow is already melting. It is good to feel the warmth of the sun, again. It's like one of those moments when a tired man coming from a long trip finds a cosy spot by the fireplace and sits there, thinking of nothing.
He could be remembering all of the beautiful or challenging moments of the trip but also dwell on the beauty of being home with his loved ones. However, he prefers to keep all that outside the mind and just enjoys the warmth. Feeling it, he realizes that only the present moment bears a real meaning and that past and future are only illusions of our playful minds.
These sandbags have been put here as a measure against the creek flooding the street in the spring. A smart proven precaution, but it makes me think how we sometimes put defences in places where they shouldn't be placed. Metaphorically, of course. Imagine the time we spend in planning the future instead of living the present?
Most of the times things turn out just as they should and it makes us happy. At other times, we are unhappy with the outcomes, feeling blame or guilt without reasonable causes. No matter how strong we want to anticipate or control the outcomes in the course of our lives, most of the times they're far beyond our reach. The sooner one realizes that simple fact, the sooner happiness and love prevails in one's heart.
No problem is really as huge as it may seem at the time. Why worry in advance, if there is always a sunny side of a hill? :D
Enjoy your day! :-)
