BREATHTAKING VIEWS

We live near the ocean and visit the mountains…
both skies…an exquisite shade of blue…
People who look over the water or up at the peaks
remark on the breathtaking views…

It is true…nature provides some breathtaking views
every moment of every day
but daily life has its own wonderful views…
that can also take your breath away?

When you wave to a friend you haven’t seen in a while and they smile back at you
Your partner, children, grandchildren, aunts and uncles…
each one is a breathtaking view.

Random acts of kindness, watching lovers steal a glance
listening to a baby giggle, watching anybody dance.

When people caress…that perfect kiss, when a mother and her baby meet…
watching people holding hands as they walk along the street.

Cookies fresh out of the oven, watching a group of children sing
seeing one person in love accept from another….a simple wedding ring…

Puppies rolling over each other, an intimate dinner for two…
knowing the same sky that is over me is also over you…

Breathtaking views of the oceans and mountains are wonderful
as they happen every day
but these are not the only moments
that can take your breath away…

So look around…. there is so much out there to charm, enchant and woo us…
moments that not only taking our breath away…
but breathe life back into us.
