Floral Eclipse

To state the obvious, the flower in the picture covers light of the sun. But how? How can a tiny flower cover a heavenly body that is many many many times bigger than our own Earth? The answer is quite simple. As the simplicity of the picture is also evident, so is the answer to that question. It is all about perspective.


In our lives, we are dealing with circumstances that may cause us to stumble and fall. It’s because we see our problems as big as mountains. It is common for us to consider every trouble in our lives as an opportunity to lament, to complain, to get drunk, to cry and all the other things we do when in difficulty. The way we look at things tends to dictate how we react to situations we are facing. If we see our problems from a more positive point of view, we will then discover that they are not to be called ‘problems’ at all. Optimism is the key. If we face life’s challenges this way, we will realize the universal truth that the sun will always be bigger than the flower just as our God is than our problems.
