The Painting in the Sky

Ave Maria :-) 

One late afternoon...well close to dusk really... had opportunity to pray outside... ours is a tiny village probably 5 streets... it's quiet, no jeeps buses no blaring horns...occasionally there will be someone with a tv or radio played on high volume.. but that day..maybe becoz it had just showered - it was quiet --- i love it when it's quiet... then you can pray the rosary and walk at the same time ... tried to get into the groove of prayer except that my eyes always got drawn to the sky above. I rushed to the home but was a bit  late to bring out the camera .... wish I had done it 5 minutes earlier.. the sun would set soon...and the cloud formations changed so fast.

We always see the sky ... but never quite pay attention to the beautiful painting that it is. That late afternoon God had prepared a treat for me... was so unprepared for it. I am not a fan of dusk -- it often strikes me as a bit sad.... subdued and then before you know it it's plain dark.... I dislike grey colors in the sky -- well even on clothes... or things... I like colors with color , you know what I mean? But that time... it was like a slideshow of live paintings.... I was walking... praying .... slowly noticed the pretty sky above... it was the most delicate cloud formations with the most----- I'm sorry I'm at a loss for words.... there must have been at least 12 shades of grey ...because some clouds had a bit of rain... and then the sunlight filtered ... it wanted to play peek-a-boo with the clouds.... the sun was soon bidding adieu so even its rays had different shades from bright orange to the palest pinks...

. every minute or so when you looked up ...it was a different painting, the wind blew..the clouds were like dancing to a soft waltz.... the light was just gorgeous.... I should really get a better camera...I had to make do with my ..5 ..8pixel something  cam fon//// most of the spectacular images are stored in my brain and not on some sd memory card...

. after I rushed home to get the camfon.... had to literally run outside... so funny...running after the sky.... trying to get that shot ....reached the exit of our village becoz was so frustrated with all those telephone lines blocking the view...

You'll have to take my word  for the stark beauty my eyes feasted on.... well...here is your good news... you could probably have a better view right where you are... Perhaps God will paint a picture for you in the morning --- come outside..... take a walk...breathe th air..hope it's not so polluted.... say a little prayer ... it sure paves the way for the Master Painter's free slideshow.... you will be the only audience , and it makes us feel so special.... imagine God going out of His way to show you real beauty..and it's all yours. Alleluia!

I'll try to post some fotos...your imagination will have to add what my foncam couldn't capture.... God created so much beauty and we are His most Breathtaking beautiful creation of all. 

If I get to see New Zealand  or Tibet or the Scandinavian countryside...will probably suffer a stroke from the sheer bliss of it all... And this is just planet earth....What then could heaven look like. ..? God bless you...God bless us all.... and God bless all of his magnificent creation ....te mye
