Outside

I absolutely love to sit in coffee shops, drink the brew and read and write. As a matter of fact, I am sitting inside that new O'Henry's right now. I had planned to write about something else following up the last post. We will pick that back up next time, which may be in about ten minutes. You get a double dip today! That's right, congratulations!

Anyway, I was going outside to get my bag of books which I always seem to leave in the car, and when I gt to my car I just stopped. For some reason, at that moment, I actually looked around. I looked at the sunset which was a slightly faded orange tinged with gold surrounded by some dusty looking clouds. There was a gap in the clouds in which you could see a lit up blue sky that seemed to flash a bit with some yellow of the sun. My whole body could actually feel outside. Have you ever felt like this before? It felt like my whole soul was appreciating the beauty and complexity of it all. Only one other time have I felt like this and it was at night when I was staring up, dwelling on the enormity and cavernous space that we are in. It makes you feel small, but somehow lucky. Lucky to be able to behold something that is so beautiful and so complex and so diverse. It's at times like these that I am assured that there is a God and He is good and good at what He does. How does one believe that this all happened by accident. To imagine all of the things going on within mybody right now as I type. All of the synapses and nodes and things that I don't know how to spell. It is truly amazing. Anyway, I just thought that this was a good thing to hit on. Every once in a while we all need to take a step back and just enjoy what God has allowed us to behold. It's at times like this that we can understand our smallness and His greatness.

Ok, I'm done rambling. Step outside and feel. Sorry, now I'm done.
