rainbows and sunsets
Recently, i realised that consistency is the reason for why i love sunsets and the stars.Who would have thought that the constants which we take for granted, can be such a comfort to have in life? That the stars are always there when we gaze at the night sky, that the sun rise and set everyday... despite the occasional (or frequent, is the glass half empty or full?) disappointments in life.
There are people among us who find routines mundane and intolerably boring. I am, or was one of them. However, I've also realised that underneath all that, having a touch of routine keeps me grounded in life. And to some extent, gives me a reason for to get out of bed in the mornings (sometimes, its the afternoon!), no matter how much i hate it.
Its strange, because I've always thought that impermanence, is what makes life beautiful. And why the sight of a rainbow brings an instant smile into my day. I guess, i was one of those people who take the consistency of nature for granted.
