So which is it? Do you look for the silver lining or do you be an activist? Can you do both? I made an earlier post about something I saw at the beach tonight and included a photo. One Facebook friend saw the beauty of the photo but the majority saw an environmental danger and let me know all about it. I completely agree the danger exists, yet the purpose of my post was to share the beauty of the moment. But I’ve been guilty of doing the same thing when friends post pics of heavy, fatty, fried, sweet foods. I look at it and all I can see is health problems in the making. Sometimes I can smile and shake my head because their experience is none of my business, but I can seldom revel in the joy of that particular moment for them. It’s a razor’s edge, isn’t it, how to fully experience the beauty of a moment while staying mindful of consequences and implications.
