“Solace at Sunset”
By Bob Perks
.
Life appears empty sometimes. Times like losing
a job, ending a marriage, loss of a loved one, or
financial collapse.
.
All endings. I guess that’s it. Things that end remain
empty and hard to fill, replace or let go.
.
Then how do you explain sunsets?
.
It is indeed an end to something or many things. The
day ends, the celebration concludes, the band stops
playing, the dance is over, the lights go out and we
“call it a day.”
.
Seems empty to me.
.
Why then do we love sunsets?
.
It seems to go so fast when you don’t want the day
to end and much too slow when you can’t wait for it
to be over.
.
My curiosity asked “How long is a sunset?”
My searching found this answer. Rather factual,

In Awe Of Beauty
Beauty speaks to us in soft whispers or bold declarations. She calls on us to gaze in awe at her splendor. We are enticed by beauty. We adore her, idolize her, and even court her. Beauty seduces all of our senses. Beautyʼs seduction can be as obvious as the striking good looks of a man or woman or as subtle as the charms of a shaggy dog with loving brown eyes. We find beauty in the wonders of nature. Beauty offers us a symphony of colors with every sunrise and sunset and reveals to us her brash power through a storm at sea. Beauty teases us through the shy smile of a child and delights us via the brilliant flashes of fireworks. Beauty sometimes piques all of our senses at once, appealing to our taste buds,

“The Days in Between”
By Bob Perks
.
Sometimes I need to see my life differently. Like
stepping outside it and seeing it from a different
angle. Maybe walking around it, underneath it
or climbing on top. Better yet, through the eyes of a child.There is nothing complex about what I am
about to share with you. In fact, the beauty of
it lies in the simplicity.

After three weeks in the Garden of Eden, God came to visit Eve.
‘So, how is everything going?’ inquired God.
‘It is all so beautiful, God,’ she replied.
‘The sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking, the smells, the sights,
everything is wonderful, but I have just one problem.’
It’s these breasts you have given me. The middle one pushes the other two out and I am constantly knocking them with my arms, catching them on branches and snagging them on bushes.
They’re a real pain,’ reported Eve.

My daily wish is that we may
See good in those who pass our way;
Find in each a worthy trait
That we shall gladly cultivate;
See in each one passing by
The better things that beautify
A softly spoken word of cheer,
A kindly face, a smile sincere.
