A Whole New World

What would happen if each day the world would just become anew? Of course that's just the way it IS - each day Nature ends and begins anew. Just look around at the little plants and the birds and bees in your balcony and you will find something new. No? Maybe it all lies in our eyes - in how we behold the magic of life! We are tuned to do so many things as a routine that we seldom see what's new, what's fresh and what's right in front of our eyes! Even the cells in our body renews itself and comes alive with each new morning - but can we say the same of our mind?

A single thought is enough to make or break our day. A single emotion does the winding up or winding down for us. How is it when we so boast of us being a superior race (and maybe this very minute one of us is using his/her strength to terrorise another in the name of a Fight for Freedom) that we become so fragile to a single thought/emotion? How is it that we fail to see the new-ness in each day and just decide to brood over what went and worry over what will come?

Why is it so difficult to let go and live well when it is seemingly so easy to hoard up and live with pain? An angry word, a thoughtless gesture, an act of ignorance are all so much more potent in its ability to hurt than deep setbacks or failure. And we are frail so we store these unhappy moments thinking that this world is the same as each day passes by. We fail to realise that the world is changing every minute and that every new day is just that - NEW. It's gonna bring its own moments but no, we will just sit with our yesterdays and tomorrows and forget that we have the ability to enjoy what's Today. What's with us NOW. Change is possibly the best thing on this planet. We can so resist it for eternity but bulldozing it's way right into your very sight is Change. Just Look.

And of course let me know what you think of this NEW 'Spotlight' on 'Su'!
