Sunset: A Pivot of Serenity!

                Sunset: A Pivot of Serenity!

"Sunsets are the proof that endings can be beautiful too"🤗

If there's one thing in today's ever-changing world that will always be concrete: it's that the sun will rise and set every single day.

With each sunrise, a new day begins and each sunset holds the promise of a new tomorrow. Sunrises are wonderful parts of nature, but sunsets specifically hold a special place in my heart.

I never truly appreciated a sunset until I got close to my social media handles. I noticed people's always posting pictures of sunsets over the social platforms like Instagram, Whatsapp, Twitter, Snap-Chat etc., so I decided to take a night and dedicate it to watching the sunset on the alone place through the horizon. After experiencing the gorgeous beauty of sunset I'm quiet get addicted to it, and I used to give my daily time towards it.

Sunsets have a way of bringing me peace. To just sit and watch the sun sink down and watch the sky turn colors is more like an art to me.

Many times when I have felt like my eyes are filled with worries about life, I try to watch a sunset and suddenly my mood changes and all the worries were gone away for while. It’s a proven mood booster, according to studies.😉

I can just watch the sunset in awe as it unfolds. It’s all those beautiful colours like orange, red, yellow, brown and sometimes shades of blue and purple all mixed that look like a gorgeous canvas in the sky.

The sky is a beautiful canvas, and each day it paints a new portrait. An art that develops each day. It’s the same with life. We have to draw our life canvas. We have to learn each day to grow and evolve. We die as soon as we cease to learn, to reexamine our beliefs based on the stimuli we pick up from our environment, to enrich ourselves through the encounter with “otherness” — in short, to grow.

The sunset teaches a lot to me. We can learn plenty of good things through it. I still remember my evening spent at juhu beach , Mumbai, last year. The experience was very thrilling and beautiful. I never saw a sunset before as like that of juhu beach till the date. The sunsets are glorious everywhere as you see it, but the best are only around the coastal lines.    

When I look at the sky and the sunset, it reminds me of the way we should also look at life. Apply the ‘principle of expansion’ or growth to our own life experiences.

There can be no sunrise without a sunset and in that sense one does not exist without the other. Similar to that, there can be no joys without sorrow in our lives. When one door is closed, another one opens for us. We have to find our path and keep walking and experience everything that life throws at us.

A beautiful shot @Shirpur.

When I look at a sunset, I don’t find myself saying, “Soften the orange a bit.” I don’t try to control a sunset. I watch with awe as it unfolds.”

Similar to that is life. We cannot control every experience. We can only expand our horizon and learn from each experience. That’s when our lives can become enriching.

Life is like a pendulum. When things go down, they will swing back up. Always look to the bright side of life and try and see the light at the end of the tunnel.

The sunset evokes emotions of tranquility and gives my curious mind a new path to explore and teaches me to live in the moment. 

When we live in the moment we let go of our inner chaos that stops us from expanding our mind and thinking beyond our problems.

Sunsets bring that sense of inner peace that we are all seeking.

When was the last time you let your eyes wander at the changing palette of the skies when the sun sets?
