The beauty of each passing moment: A suggestion

           There comes a time in everyone's life in which we learn to slow down and take a moment to really see all that is around us. The magic and the beauty that is present in every instant of our days and nights. The unpredictable patterns that come and go with a clear beginning and an unforeseeable end. A sight that in and of itself can make you feel deeply connected to everything that is around you. Suffice to take a walk through a forest, spend an afternoon by a river, or sail the seas (without your smartphone, iPod, camera, etc...) to gain a glimpse of this ever-changing masterpiece. 

          There is no doubt in my mind that if everyone were to stop wasting their precious and limited time on distractions and the pursuit of dull ambitions, and instead invested their time to truly SEE it all (to FEEL it), the way in which we currently treat the planet and each other would profoundly change... for the better. 

The following video offers a tiny glimpse of what has already passed and will never be repeated in the exact same way again. My suggestion is that if you want the FULL experience (free of charge for the best seats in the house), turn away from your computer/T.V./smartphone screen... and go play outside. For indeed, something wonderful and unique can occur when our contact with the world becomes direct. Enjoy and rejoice in it!

Beauty, like happiness, occurs frequently.

Not a day goes by in which we don't, for an instant, live in paradise. 

- Jorge Luis Borges
