Just Sit Still

AS I LIE HERE LOOKING OUT OF MY WINDOW, WHICH FACES TO THE EAST RISING EACH MORINING AT THE CRACK OF DAWN,I CAN WATCH THE HEAVENS COME TO LIFE. I HAVE BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I WAS A CHILD, WAKING UP BEFORE THE HOUSEHOLD AND JUST SITTING BY THE WINDOW WATCHING AS A NEW DAY APPEARS ON THE HORIZON. WAITING AND WONDERING WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO BEHOLD, YOU GET TO SEE THE CLOUDS DANCING IN THE SKY,YOUR EYES WIDEN IN AMAZEMENT AT THE MANY SHAPES TAKING FORM, "WOW" FROM HUMAN FACES TO ALL TYPES OF ANIMALS, TREES ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE FORMING IN THE SKY. THEN THE SUN ARRIVES ON THE HORIZON, WELCOMING IN A NEW DAY. AS THE BIRDS BEGIN TO SING AND DANCE IN THE SKY I AM ALWAYS IN "AWE." AT NIGHT ABOUT 9.00PM ALL CELL PHONES, TELEVISION AND COMPUTERS ARE TURNED OFF. FOR IT IS THE NIGHT SKY THAT HOLDS THE BIGGEST MYSTERY FOR ME. AS I WATCH THE STARS AND WHAT PLANETS THAT I CAN SEE WITH THE NAKED EYE. I AM REMINDED OF THE BOOK OF ENOCH THE PROPHET, ON HOW THE ANGEL URIEL EXPLAINED THE LAWS OF LIGHT TO HIM, OF THE SUN, MOON AND STARS ALL THE POWERS OF HEAVEN, WHICH TURN WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE ORBS. THEN I AWAKE AT THE CRACK OF DAWN, AND THESE WORDS COME TO MIND, "TO BE IN THE WORLD, BUT NOT OF THE WORLD" SOMETIMES IN LIFE WE NEED TO JUST SIT STILL AND LISTEN TO THE HEAVENS, IT LEAVES YOU WITH INNER PEACE AND A CALMING EFFECT THAT STAYS WITH YOU ALL DAY, AS YOU BEGIN YOUR LIFE'S JOURNEY FROM SELF TO SELF TO THE CREATOR. WE HUMANS TEND TO THINK TOO MUCH, THEN WE OVER THINK AND THEN WE END UP BACK WERE WE STARTED. FROM SELF TO SELF AS IN (SELFISHNESS) INSTEAD OF TO THE CREATOR
