One Apple A Day #497 - Perspective
If you divide a number by infinite, no matter how big that number is, the result is always zero.
Yesterday I was talking with a friend about how easy it is to get trap into the desire of doing more, achieving more, having more. It may be for fear of missing out (FOMO), or for the willingness to be in service. Or maybe is just that we love so much for what we do that we crave more of it. The result is the same. It’s just never enough.
It happens to me sometimes. I got so focused on doing things that I forget to savor the moment. Yesterday morning, while I was driving home, the sky was so clear that I was able to see the Dolomites in all their majestic beauty. It’s humbling. That view reminded me that life, even the longest one, is practically nothing compared to eternity.
This post is just a note to myself. No matter how far and how fast I walk, the horizon will always be somewhere in the distance. But if I pause, breathe and lift my gaze, the horizon will come to me.
