Be astonished


'Instructions for living a life.
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.'
Mary Oliver

Living here in my west-facing flat, I do pay attention to the evening skies and sunsets, which are always unique, sometimes unremarkable and occasionally stunning. I am often astonished, often exhilarated. I do like to tell about them - I think we all enjoy a good sky. So here's another, taken at 9.30pm one warm summer evening. 


Look up at the heavens and see; gaze at the clouds so high above you. 
Job 35:5

The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. 
Psalm 19:1-2

    Thanks for stopping to notice, and taking a photo to share...then actually posting to let all of us here on the other side of your screen...somewhere out here in internet-land, blog-land actually, where my clicking of a mouse lets me enjoy briefly what you captured. Oh you know. Just thank you!

    This is very good advice and every evening we get up from our living room couch to look at the sunsets over the Nashua River. Some are quite spectacular especially during the heat wave.
