Love the Earth We Were Given to Share

I'm absolutely in love with sunrises and sunsets, especially  in the mountains. There's something so beautiful about  the sun kissing everything one last time before it goes to sleep and then touching each thing individually to wake it up, as gently as a as a mother would her children, early in the morning. Sunsets and sunrises are some of God's little gifts to us. He paints us this beautiful sky, but we only get to enjoy it for a short period of time before it disappears and the sun goes to sleep or comes out completely. I'm not a morning person, but sunrises give me reason enough to wake up as early as 2AM to hike above treeline and watch the world come alive.
It's little, beautiful things like that that I think show us how much God loves us and how much we really have to live for. There are so many things all around us that we just take for granted and to see so many people just trashing it and ruining the beauty and simplicity of nature, as though it were their's to ruin, makes me sick. We all share this world and it's our job to take care of it. How would you like it if I came and threw my garbage all over your house? You probably wouldn't..
I think what we really need is to get back to the simplicity of life before technology and all of today's garbage. So unplug, leave your house, and enjoy it. If we all just take a second to sit back and stop worrying about all the things we have to do and our plans for the future for one minute, maybe, just maybe, everyone will see how blessed we truly are.
