Sunsets ground me. The transcendency and restorative feeling I get when witnessing a spectacular sunset makes me feel connected with nature and its Creator. And, that helps stir feelings of thankfulness and gratitude.
Some people love sunrises as a way to begin another day of opportunities. And, I have to admit, on the few occasions I’ve witnessed a spectacular sunrise, it did stir some excitement in me about the day. But then, it’s gone and the reality of responsibilities and expectations set in and all I feel is stressed.
So the next time you see a sunset, stop moving. Stop talking. Just breathe. You’ll be glad you did.
Every sunset is an opportunity to reset. ~Richie Norton
WOW, God sure made a pretty one! We have some pretty sunsets here in the South too, especially the red and pink ones. Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
Sunsets, sunrises, they’re right up there with oceans and other large bodies of water. They’re what soothes the soul and restores the spirit. Yours is beautiful.
And I absolutely love what you said here, because it mirrors my own thoughts and feelings about sunsets…

YES!
I enjoy sunrises too, but not nearly as much as when the sun sets.
I have say, one of the things I liked about living in Florida were the sunsets because they are glorious. Particularly in Key West at the Southernmost Point.
Thanks so much for sharing the beauty, my friend! Have a spectacular weekend! X

There’s nothing like a sunset or sunrise to get me to sit and be still and just enjoy.
