We expected it to be blue, but it was orange. Sky transformed today to catalyze a change.

Human eye needs to change not just at the surface but from within. We need to learn from mother nature, our biggest teacher.

It is not a subtle reminder but a nudge for us to learn empathy. When the trees were burning, sky could not stop. It changed its core. It did not care about its beauty. It wanted to cry with the trees. It changed its color to standby the pain of the trees. It cried and howled and turned red.

Because trees and the blue skies co-exist. They are incomplete without each other. Sky is blue because of the earth’s atmosphere which is maintained in part by the green ecosystem we have on earth.

Then why do humans not feel each other’s pain. Why are they so indifferent to each other? Why do they act against each other when they know their survival depends on co-existence.

Is nature telling us again and again? When will we change?

When will we stop blaming and start forgiving. When will be more kind?
