I often hang around long after sunset … long after everyone else has left the sunset point. Not only because it’s a time when nature unveils the best of colors but also because I want to hang on to the beauty around me. I don’t want to let go of the moment. I want the moment to stretch to infinity and give me a glimpse of eternity.
Why do I do this? I think the main reason for this is that like every other human who walked on planet earth, I too am a creature of hope. I hope for a better life, I hope for a better future for my child, and I hope for a better world. I even hope that I can grow into a better person. And I have a feeling that it is this hope that makes everything else possible.
I think all of us can grow into better people. We can do so with each choice we make. We can do so with each act of kindness, with each gesture of love, and with each thought of understanding. Only by being better people we can make a better life for ourselves, we can create a better future for our children, and we can build a better world. Only by being better people and sharing our light with everyone can we stretch each moment to infinity and give ourselves a glimpse of eternity.
So what are you waiting for? Let’s begin.
