Look

Look, and look again.

This world is not just a little thrill for the eyes. It’s more than bones. It’s more than the delicate wrist with its personal pulse. It’s more than the beating of the single heart. It’s praising. It’s giving until the giving feels like receiving.

You have a life — just imagine that!

You have this day, and maybe another, and maybe still another

    1. Thanks Terry, yes it is a lovely reminder. I really like the prompt – “It’s praising” – reminding me to look outside of my own concerns. Thanks so much for all your comments, and hope you are keeping well, Karl
