This is another photo from hiking out near Las Vegas in March. When I took it, what had gotten my attention was the plane flying out of the clouds. It was only after I had taken the photo that I realized the clouds were in the shape of an animal’s head.

Life is often like that. Our attention is drawn to something immediate but sometimes fleeting. Daily (or any periodic) reflection is a good way to go beyond the “distracting” events in our lives.
