She watched the last sunset of the year as the sun dove into the horizon behind the Pacific Ocean. The moment felt overwhelmingly magnificent; the sun, the ocean, the hills, the chill in the air, the presence of family; she felt like praying. There was only one thought in her heart and she prayed on it. Not necessarily feeling heard she then asked for a sign.
The ball of sun had faded completely. How fast the sun sets when it is watched at dusk! How quickly this last day faded away, for ever, gone and done with!
It was still light and the ocean boasted underneath its mesmerizing shimmers. She scanned the ocean; it looked calm, all calm. Suddenly there appeared a spout of water and then a whale tail surfaced majestically. This was just too magical of a sign; this was like fairytales. She found herself in prostration, head on the earth in surrender to the Grace of God.
