The colors change on the Franklin mountains all day, afternoon and evening. Sometimes the light makes them look shades of browns, then the sun shifts and they look shades of greens, shades of grays, shades of dark blues and even sometimes shades of reds. There is beauty in their ever changing light.
Take notice of the light changing the look of nature and everyday objects. It’s all about perspective. Look at it in new ways. Choose the beauty of the change. Life itself can seem dark, but when you open your mind to see the light in things, your perspective also opens. With dusk everyday reminding us of the sun setting and the day finishing, mentally list three positive things that happened in your day. Choose to see things in the light of positivity. At the end of the day, when the sun sleeps, choose to be happy. Dusk is a reminder, it’s all about perspective.
