Betty and I went to China and Taiwan recently. We have been to many beautiful places, met lots of interesting people; it was an “eye-opening” trip. But we both came back with a common conclusion: the gorgeous scenery comes and goes, but it is the people that make an ever-impressive mark in our mind or heart.
Maybe we are both getting old, visiting places (be it modern, cultural or historical), do not interest us as much any more. It is the interactive encountering among human nature, cultures, geographic backgrounds and pure minds that fascinate us.
If we want to see the natural wonder of the universe or striking scenery, just lift up our head and look up in the sky. The clouds are forever changing and are so magnificent. Have you ever enjoyed the splendid sky? It does not cost you any money and you do not need to travel far. Yet we are so occupied with our busy life that we miss all the natural beauty in front of us.
Appreciate your surrounding, your relationship and your consciousness while you can.
So I am taking this moment to thank all sentient beings that I have encountered, thank you for making a difference in my life towards the attainment of enlightenment.
May we all live our lives as splendid as the sky...
