azure

it is a beautiful day, and you have decided to spend it outside.

you are drawn to look above. the day is aglow, translucent, shining. a glory of pure light.

with a sky as blue as the blue of creation's eye and as clear as the thought of forever in eternity's mind.

even as you are here, a creature of the earth, connected to the land, toiling upon its surface. a little more than just a hand-hold from heaven.

have you ever wondered what lies beyond the furthest reaches of the sky? have you ever wondered what lies beyond the deepest blue? what there is beyond the limits of your reality?

beyond your limited senses, and limited hands and limited feet, and limited arms and limited legs, and limited body and limited mind? beyond, in a universe that is most infinite?

you are limited in what you know, and what you know is not much. but wherever, however, whatever your limits may be, you do most assuredly at the very least know this:

you want to be more.

and that's why you now press on.

faster. stronger. harder. sharper. smarter. wiser. purer. truer. deeper. higher. farther. greater. more.

more than here, more than a creature of the earth, more than connected to the land, more than toiling upon the surface. a little more than just a hand-hold from heaven.

because you want to be

the forever in eternity's mind

the blue of creation's eye

the sky

azure.
