Why is Life Amazing?



Why do I live in wonder? Why is my journey amazing?

Look to the small things that are overlooked by others for answers.

Search the sky to see the wonders of creation.

Listen to the miracles in the waves of sound.

From the heart feel the magic of love and emotions.

In the sunrise, observe the beginning of another day to live.

In the sunset, celebrate the end of a beautiful day,

In the darkness of night, a chance to rest.

 

There are many wonders so look around.

In the clouds, the blessings of water,

From the trees the gift of oxygen.

From the animals, balance.

Food supplying the sustenance of life.

In life itself, there is creation.

 

In nature, see the dust of the stars,

The magic of life’s building blocks,

The perfection of a living planet,

The healing of our bodies,

The Oneness of All That Is,

The closeness of our Divine Creator.

 

In humans there are many gifts.

Eyes show our divine soul,

Ears that can listen for the truth,

Lips that are able speak our truth,

Arms that can comfort those in need,

And hearts that can give unconditional love.
