“What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.” – Ecclesiates 1:9
The Sun, our home star, energizes the life of our planet from 93 million miles away. It has been doing that day in and day out for a very long time. When my perspective of change is tied to my own lifespan, it is easy to feel tossed about in dramatic arcs. To feel the peaceful constancy of the Universe, I need only to look up from my life.
While there is nothing new under the sun, there is more than enough that is new to me. If I ask around, though, I may find connections to the processes that continually have influence here and learn from them. That, I believe, is where wisdom is found. King Solomon might have been thinking about that when he set down the thought which opens this post.
“Even
After
All this time
The Sun never says to the Earth,“You owe me.”
Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the whole sky.”―

Magnificent photos Under the Sun. Love the quote by Hafiz. It lights the whole sky via your lens!
Thank you for sharing, Pricilla! 🙂
My pleasure, Amy! Thanks for hosting the challenge and visiting my post.
Ha ha. Great photos. Kick up your heels!
Thanks, John…might as well!
My favorite here is the one of the sun seen through the trees!
It looks almost like an alien encounter, so it’s one of my favorites, too! Thanks for your visit!
Oh I loved your response this week Priscilla. The Hafiz quote is really wonderful as is the image you used with the sunlight streaming through the trees. Beautiful.
Thanks, Tina! Hafiz is such a joyful soul. I love his thoughts.
I love that sun through the trees…marvelous!
Such beautiful pictures, Priscilla!
Thanks, Sylvia!
Really enjoyed your post, and I think that just might be me in the last photo — I’m always overjoyed to be at the beach! It’s just my happy place.
I’m glad you enjoy the photo and see yourself in it! Maybe that makes it Art. 😉
It is art!!!
Lovely reflection and photos…. smiled when I saw the last one.
Thanks, Bruce. 🙂
