EMPS #75: PEACEFUL PLACES - Let's enjoy a photography assignment this week that celebrates the PEACEFUL PLACES in our lives.
If I have to pick a favorite, meeting the new day with the sunrise is the most peaceful of moments for me. The sunrise never fails to inspire in me a deep sense of hope and beauty--a beautiful reminder that life is good and that every sunrise signals a new day to try again.
The following is an excerpt from Fernando Ortega's uplifting song, On This Good Day. (Click on the link to listen to the song.)
This goody dayWelcome to my first EMPS post.
It is a gift from You.
The world is turning in its place
because You made it to.
I lift my voice
To sing a song of praise
On this good day.
“One’s destination is never a place,
but a new way of seeing things.”
~Henry Miller

ReplyDeleteWelcome to EMPS! sunrise and sunset is always a peaceful time for me, a good time to reflex on ourselves while enjoying the natural beauty.
ReplyDeleteLove this photo. Remember this poem by Kalidasa?
ReplyDeleteLook to this day
For it is life, the very life of life.
In its brief course
Lie all the verities and realities of your existence.
The bliss of growth,
The glory of action,
The splendour of achievement
Are but experiences of time.
For yesterday is but a dream
And tomorrow is only a vision;
And today well-lived,
Makes yesterday a dream of happiness
And every tomorrow a vision of hope.
Look well therefore to this day;
Such is the salutation to the ever-new dawn!
Love you.
What a beautiful shot! It truly does look restful and peaceful. You must be in the Eastern U.S. as my sunrise comes up over the mountains. To my west is the Oregon coast, where I enjoy gorgeous sunsets. It is lovely to see everyday life from varying vantage points.
