Last Morning of 2010

this morning i was up at 4:30 to find a sliver of the moon and one bright star sitting in the heavens just above the water line.....it looked like a giant size children's picture book cover......right there in front of me in all its brightness......... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ as it drew near to sunrise the heavens began to change as the moon and star moved higher in the sky the horizon took on a hue of rosy pink that cast a pink shadow on the clouds which..in turn...cast a pink hue on the ocean's surface......so.......there it was ......an amazing picture.... moon and star in the night sky high above while day was breaking on the horizon.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the complete circle was present to me in that moment.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ i was reminded of the fluid nature of all life...... ongoing.......ever changing......gentle movement from one moment to the next....... a wonder right here before my eyes......and even now......... as i type these words..... my eyes are set on the horizon as the sun appears..... it is a magnificent sight that i am privileged to observe in this moment... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ it feels so dream like.....no words can describe the beauty that cannot be held.....or captured.....but must be experienced in the moment ....for just as it appears..... it most surely fades into its next expression of being..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ so i see that this is how i can understand myself....... each moment of experience with myself is perfect and complete as i move into the next moment of expression...... i am learning how fluid life truly is..... simply being in the moment is an amazing thing..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    yes...i saw the morning moon and the star... i walked outside around 5:00 am
    and there it was right in front of me...the sliver of a moon and the brilliant star..
    they were so close to each other................that gave me a thought to ponder...
    how close is my star becoming one with the shadow..........love that thought
