Lost in the Clouds

Not the best quality photo, but it sums up my yesterday. I have always been fascinated with the clouds, but they were especially captivating in the afternoon. They looked so close and felt so radiant, peaceful, and consuming at the same time. Yes, I said felt, because I literally felt them, and that’s what mesmerized me. Looking at the clouds stirred things inside of me that I couldn’t even verbalize until now. There was like this sense of awe and reverence, and it was almost too strong to continue looking but too beautiful to turn away from.
I found myself staring at them, connecting with them, wanting to reach out and grab them, and then just basking in their presence for a while. I’m pretty sure I smiled several times and muttered some words of childlike amazement. Then I took about a dozen pictures of them, trying to capture their 9D essence with my 3D phone. Clearly it didn’t work, lol, but it happened all the same.
I challenge you to take a minute to stop and “look” at the clouds today. Maybe do it on your lunch break or during some random stop at a gas station or grocery store.
Feel them. Experience them. See what they stir up. Don’t stop yourself from reaching for them or sitting with them if your insides compel you to do so.
Today is yet another day, and I thank the Heavenly Father that I’m here for it. I’m thankful for every person I come across, every situation that gets placed into my experience, and every lesson I get to learn.
Life in this world isn’t perfect. It is what it is for now, and that’s okay. I’m here. You’re here. We’re all here.
Have a blessed day.
