Do you ever watch the sunrise?

by Marco Pete

I live a long way from work, so I drive in early, which gives me the wonderful opportunity to watch the sunrise every morning.

However, it is a bit difficult to take a photo from a moving vehicle, especially when you are the one driving!

One thing I can say about Africa is that the sunrises can be stunning. I saw one the other day, with the sun peeking through the clouds above the mountains: The colours were a beautiful pink, red and orange. Glorious!

Do we ever take the time to see what beauty is in the world?

Have you ever sat and just watched the sun go down? Have you ever made the effort to just smile at someone and watch their face light up!

It is amazing how we get so caught up in life that it just passes us by. We run around so much, we forget about what is important to us - ourselves and our fellow man.

We came here to grow; to expand our experiences; to develop as human beings; to make a contribution to the greater good.

So make it your objective today to put a smile on someone's face and see how it will light up your day!
