The Beautiful Sky

When on a recent afternoon drive I relished the beautiful sky. It was so clear and blue. White, puffy clouds floated overhead, creating interesting shapes. It was fun to watch them waft through the sky at a steady pace. Although the air seemed still, it as obvious that breezes were moving the clouds along quite swiftly. The simple sky can be expansive and broad, opening vistas known only in the imagination! Simple, yet complex in its majesty. Sky. Beautiful sky.

A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed... It feels an impulsion... this is the place to go now.  But the sky knows the reasons and the patterns behind all clouds, and you will know, too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons.
