The Northern Lights make music, you know.

In working with kids over the years, and in reflecting on my own tendencies of thought, I think it is because virtually none of us are taught to value to familiar as miraculous that we find so little happiness in simplicity and need ever more spectacular toys and entertainments to bolster our happiness. I’m as guilty of this as anyone, I think. I also think that learning to treasure the miraculous familiar goes a long way in helping one to view one’s life circumstances as much better than they may at first appear!

And yet we are here, bored, restless, seeking instant gratification. Time to go back to being child-like. Not childish, but child-like.

We sit and look out the window and inside a voice invites out to play. But, we are too busy we think while sitting in our favorite recliner. Meanwhile, the beauty of our majestic Sun in all it’s amazing splendor is setting. The wildlife, the birds and insects, the sound of a babbling brook are all within a stones throw of our backyard. But, no, something important is happening - my favorite show is about to come on television…or it’s almost time for me to get my turn on the family computer to play games or surf the internet. John lennon said it best when he said, “Life is what happens when you are busy making other plans.” There is life outside those walls! Life to behold in it’s wonder! The face of God and his awesome
creation is going by the wayside! Jim Morrison said, “No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn.” Our punishment is happening at the same time as our sin as we miss out on the beauty and joy that’s right outside.

Namaste,
