Today is a good day! Despite the difficulties that many of us all encountered today, today is a good day.

I had the time to be outside and be among God's creation, marveling at the cloud filled sky and feeling a bit of Spring as I unzipped my jacket. I had time to be amongst different people, to look at everything and to be content. I felt joy today and a childlike appreciation for life. Today, for a while, I had no cares no problems, no conflicts. Today I realized how blessed I am. Today I felt joy. I want this to last forever!
