What excites you

Like a child's eyes get big upon looking at their new toy mine get that way upon the morning sunrise. My life flashes before me highlighting all the wonder times I experienced.  The mountains in the distance carry a big feeling of mystery until you get close and they increase in size that increases your curiosity. Everything of beauty around us was made by our creator and when you keep an open mind embracing the magnificence of our planet you allow yourself a lifetime of amazement. Like a child my heart still reacts in a way towards the good things in life that lift my existence up and I feel lighthearted. Dont take forgranted the sun or full moon you've seen alot already in your life get excited that it came back again to shine in the sky and provide light and warmth for us.
If you choose to live with blinders on you will see nothing but darkness.
