Well, all my happy memories just bring me to sad ones right now.
I was walking along the boardwalk in a town in Florida during Christmas time but it was in South Florida so it was warm....it was in the evening and the sun was setting. Because the weather was so beautiful and it was a holiday, so many people were out and about. They were walking like me but some were on roller skates, on bicycles, pushing babies in carriages..there were young and old people and all ages in between. The evening sky was full of pinks and blues and grays...just lovely and the seagulls and other birds were looking for fish in the ocean. I was walking along and all of a sudden I had this great sense of love and oneness with everyone and everything around me. I knew that we were all connected but somehow we had just lost that knowledge. I felt the pure love of God or the universe....Every time I remember this today, I feel just great. Even in my darkest hour, I try and remember this peace.
That is a lovely memory to have pamela.
Hi Pamela,
I got the same feeling once watching the sun set over the Pacific Ocean. The whole sky was a blaze of color and it was more exquisite than any painting or photograph could ever capture. The last stragglers were leaving and for just a few minutes I had that stretch of beach all to myself. I can still see the rocks and feel the sand and hear the waves. I knew it was everybody's sunset, but for those few minutes I felt like it was just for me, helping me remember that there are beautiful things in the world.
