Peekaboo London, ON June 2024 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
There’s no order or logic to what may or may not be floating through the sky as the sun winks out of sight. Clouds don’t work on any kind of schedule, and we have no control over what the resulting scene might look like. We get what we get.
Which, if we pause on that concept for a bit, feels a lot like the life we’ve put on pause so we can stand here staring out toward the ends of the Earth for a bit. The unseen forces shaping the sky are a lot like the ones that surround us day-to-day. We have no control over any of it.
Instead, we control where we stand, where we look, what we think, and how we feel. All of that? Entirely up to us, within our control.
Forget the cause. Focus on the response.
Seems like a decent lesson to hold onto as I tuck the camera away one final time for the night and head for home.
