We forget so easily the enormous breadth of life on this earth that does not walk on 2 legs. It only took a few precious moments in an aquarium yesterday to be reminded of the immense beauty of the creatures around us. We feel such power over the world, but we are actually so small and insignificant in the grand scheme. From the beautiful sea anemone and the adorable mini starfish to lethal force of the sharks and barracudas (a bit scary, but alluring just the same for their power and grace.)
A trip through the aquarium is an appropriate analogy for life; you can either walk through the experience looking in the glass windows with half-hearted interest or you can be absorbed in the magnificence of the journey with appreciation for the connectedness of all things and joy for the beauty of life itself.
