Imperceptible Change

Everything seemed to move in slow motion this morning. I watched as the sky slowly turned colour. It started our bright red by the horizon and, as the light increased, the whole of the sky turned pink, purple and blue. But I was most fascinated with the actually rising of the sun this morning. I was curious to know how long it actually took to rise from breaking the horizon to being fully up in a blazing circle. I was shocked to discover that it took less than 3 minutes. I was trying to perceive the movement of the earth but it was completely impossible to notice. Yet, we were clearly moving, and moving quickly at that, because the sun went from the horizon to full circle in less than 3 minutes.

The important thing in life is to always keep moving. It also important to notice that you are always growing in each moment and moving in the direction of that growth. It might not feel like it but there is constant movement in your life. Growth is good because the alternative is "not growth" (aka death). There is so much to experience in our sensory world that you could spend your time just looking around at all of the things that you never noticed and still never be able to notice everything. Just keep moving, even if you feel stagnant. Do something different. It will make a world of difference.
