Watching A Sunrise

"Watching a sunrise, we open ourselves up to the beauty that nature creates, knowing it will never repeat itself just like this again." ~ Jake Rajs


A simple sentence like ‘Watching A Sunset’ can trigger thoughts, ideas, dreams. The mind seems to work over time when the sentence watching a sunset is concerned at least in my mind at this point in time. Watching a sunset can bring about a smile, a memory or just things that we could possibly think off that involves the sunrise – romance, family times…

the sunrise is like a magic ball when it comes up, its rays creep through our blinds or curtains, or the rays pointing straight on our patios, our gardens, behind the trees, the majestic looking ball slowly coming out from beneath the trees across from the lake, when on a boat or ship in an ocean or on the beach where the sun seem to be coming out of the water. The rays the multitude of colors and how it breaks up the dark clouds is truly amazing. It is as though ones heart is opened and light is shining out of it for its full of happiness ……

It brings back memories of breakfast with grandma and the rest of the family as we sit at the patio in the early hours of the morning watching the day begin. Memories of waking up in the middle of the sea while vacationing some years back – the smell the sounds and sleeping in a wooden house we could see the rays of the sun coming through the gaps.

It creates of thoughts of waking up with someone special on a cruise to nowhere, huddled together watching the sun come up or waking up next to a loved one on the beach cuddled together under the blanket.

I was inspired to write this blog by those simple lines ‘watching a sunrise’ which I received from my favorite site dailyinspirations.com. What started out as a simple quote took me away for a while to come up with memories & dreams.

I have included some pictures of sunsets I found online and included quotes with them. Some of the quotes coincide while others down but it all describes the wonders and beauty of and nature.
