I am grateful for life.
When I slow down, I observe the richness of life.
May I introduce you to some of my neighbors and beautiful moments?
These things spread a smile across my face…
A neon pink and brilliant purple sunset
The older gentleman walking his bulldog, he waves…
they look exactly alike
The elderly lady in an over-sized olive drab sweatshirt and gray baggy pants…
with hot pink crocs on her feet
The lady who walks her dog…
actually she walks and he observes the walk from the crook of her arm
The church van and trailer hitched together…
ready to go out and serve!
High school student kneeling to talk eye-to-eye with a first grader in the church lobby
A child giggling
The aroma of the crockpot meal late in the afternoon
A text message from my college son or high school daughter
My Bible on a quiet Saturday morning with hot tea and a bagel
The little girl pausing from her scooter ride to pick up a bug…
while her little shitzu pogos on the leash
Playing with a litter of four-week old puppies
It’s JOY on the outside!
What makes you smile?
Smile!
