A Father and A Daughter

A father and his daughter were standing in a meadow on a warm summer afternoon enjoying the beautiful day. The father looked skyward for a long moment and then remarked to his daughter, "As I look at this glorious sky with the incredible blues and those pure white clouds, I am reminded of something my grandfather once said to me. He told me on a very similar day that when you look upon such a scene, it is almost as if the heavens are laid out before you."

His daughter glazed at the sky briefly and replied, "That is absurd."

"Well then, what would you say?"

She said, "I would say, when you look upon such a scene, it is almost as if the heavens are laid out before you."

Her father smiled.
