Its 4 a.m.

And for those who dont know me,the wee hours of the a.m. is when I start to get honest. So here are some early mornin thoughts...
We walk through life, rushing...everything kinda speeds by in a blur...then things happen...huge, life changing things...these things cause us to slow down and..well..think. Sometimes these are hard times ( G-d forbid). Times that make us count what we do have, after they are over and done with. We end up feeling raw, or more aware or just real, like overcoming this great obstacle almost made us see, what, I don't know, but our eyes are open.
Then there are times, of great joy, when there is a constant song in our heart because of this huge life change. These times keep us grateful to be alive. Our eyes are opened once again, but what we see is very different. Everything seems to slow down and make sense. We become more aware of how beautiful the world really is. You see it in every blade of grass, in every movement the wind makes. And you feel as though your being carried, because everything seems lighter... Im not sure where Im going with this. Maybe the beauty of it all has taken me over. And I need to spill it out before it swallows me whole. I am so thankful and feel so blessed. And its hard to believe but things really can be as good as they seem...
