If you go to Paris, you must go to the Musee de lOrangerie to see Claude Monets Water Lilies. In two large oval rooms, you are surrounded by huge canvases in which he painted the lilies in every season of the year from morning to night. I stared at them and wept at their beauty. You can see each brushstroke that he made. Then I had an epiphany. In these paintings there is no sky and no ground. Only the view of what was right before him. Just like our lives. No yesterday, no tomorrow. There is only now and the beauty of this moment. I sat before them and could not stop weeping. I weep now just thinking of them. Beauty+Art=God
