I Know You’re There
So.
I’m back home for a day or three, hunkered in my favorite writing spot, waiting on the sunrise.
ahhhh.
The sunrise.
It occurred to me a few mornings ago as I watched that glorious ball make a quietly beautiful entrance, that I had not witnessed her arrival in quite the while.
Call it busy or tired or shhhh be quiet ! or the weather or just not taking the time to look out the darn window
but, by and because of my own silly fault, I missed.
I missed
& I just never realized until this very moment how viewing that sun rise has become a part of me.
She’s embedded.
But guess what ?
Morning broke and she appeared each and every day anyways, with or without.
She’s there, doing her thing, putting on a daily show for you, for me, for us, whether we pay attention to her or not
& isn’t that absolutely fantastic ?!?
So.
Yesterday afternoon.
There I was trying to catch up on all my this and that’s.
Sorting mail, emptying my suitcase, checking appointments
& I just happened to be by my back door, just happened to glance up.
hmmmm
Movement, way back in the trees.
Maybe it’s a dog.
Maybe it’s a person.
Maybe it’s my imagination.
I’ll just stop what I’m doing.
I’ll wait to see.
Turns out, they were deer, three of them, wandering out into the brightness from the shadows of the trees
& there they were, just like that, still, stealth and simple
& I thought, WoW.
I almost missed such an amazing moment by my own busyness.
But, guess what ?
That priceless second would have happened with or without me.
Just like the sunrise.
boom.
There.
& that’s how I know.
I. KNOW.
Love
Hope
Faith
Genuine, kindness and possible.
Goodness and beauty and wonder.
They are there.
They forever and always will be there
& isn’t THAT absolutely fantastic too ?!?
Stop
Look.
Seek.
Find.
I promise.
Happier awaits when you notice.
🙂
