Even on a calm day, the sea is neither still, nor flat. Looking out over the Med from Sicily I noticed these pathways on the surface of the water. I’ve seen this phenomenon pretty frequently and every time it captures my attention.
Firstly, it’s beautiful. Life is better when we look out for the beauty which surrounds us.
Secondly, it’s curious. Life is better when we wonder, when we are aware of the truly amazing phenomena of nature.
Thirdly, it’s inspiring. When I look at a scene like this I realise how little I understand about this world. I am in awe.
Truly, this is an awesome planet. We should really be careful about how we change it, how we live on it, every single day. Because we do change it, every one of us, just by making our daily choices, just by where we focus our attention. We leave our marks. We leave our traces.
