This Is [Our] Life

Breathing in the essence of
the stardust of the universe,
grasping the enormity of our lives—
past, present, and future. Forevermore,
being the eternal song of the stars
and the stardust running in our blood...

I never could quite say how beautiful
everything is. How a stunning picture of
complete love, hope, and joy has been
painted using the gold of the sunrays,
the colours of the rainbow, the velvet
black of space and the shining sliver of stars.

When life comes and hits me over the head,
I’ll be enjoying all the natural wonders of the world,
traipsing mountaintops, watching sunsets, and
touching stars. Imprints left in time and
space due to the living energy we all possess.
Nothing will be over, because what once was, forever will be.

The spiritual journey of our physical beings
leads us to Nirvana, to a place where dreams are
reborn and time does not exist. The grains of
coloured sand sparkle prettily in the crashing waves,
and reality is what we make of it, as the Book of Destiny
lies open to us all; Freewill but a game of dice.

    This is lovely somehow you got into the blues and guessed my secret? More likely you felt it. This is not abstract art rather earth art. satellite pictures of the earth.
