The wondrous morning sky

Stringing together my thoughts over several days and several tweets, I put together what the morning sky has taught me:

1. Life is about surprises: The sky on no two mornings is the same. It never fails to surprise.

Same balcony, same spot, but thousands of different sky pics!

2. But only if you look: For it to really surprise you, you need to look at it with the wonder of a child.

Yet another wondrous sky

3. Impermanence adds to sweetness: The colours are ever-changing, and often ephemeral. The beauty of the sky is in its impermanence. Blink and you miss it.

Beauty in fragility

4. About never losing hope: The darkest nights produce the brightest stars. And even the darkest night will lead to dawn.

Hope and resilience in the sky

5. About resilience: “…the blue sky above never leaves…”

  1. There is no dearth for seeking inspiration around us, provided we have the right perspective..even the sky seems to inspire you Rashi because you are sensitive to everything around you.. thanks for bringing a fresh way of looking at things
