even with our differences present, love still radiates. it still transcends.

outdoor symphony.

the sound in this photo , i wish it were playing now. calming. soothing. freeing. the fountains played a symphony that made the dragonflies dance with the wind to the tunes of the drops beating the ripples of the already settled water. it was magnificent. and the way the sun reflected on the water, the way the Son reflects each one of us whether we acknowledge it or not, it remarkable. it amazing. we share love. we share grace. we share mercy. we share forgiveness. we share gentleness. we share joy. or at least we should. it's not easy. and i know the sun doesn't like burning the water . striking the water with its rays. i know the sun doesn't like that. but i know the Son would love us to reflect His light in the midst of a dank world. we got the long end of the stick.

we take for granted.

i wake up to a sound mind each and everyday. to ears that are able to hear. to a mouth that is immutable. to eyes that can see further and more clear than many. to eyes that can see. to a mouth that can speak. to ears that can listen. to hands that are mobile. to hands that can hold. to legs that are intact. to legs that can walk. to a mind that can think straight. all by the grace of God.

i can read. i am literate. i am able to articulate. i am in school. i have excelled to higher education. i am able to pick up a book and read it. i can sit inside of a classroom. i have computer access. i go to a school with a library that holds countless books. i have instructors that care. all by the grace of God.

i have a warm meal everyday. i drink clean water. i am able to eat and drink food to nourish my body. on a day to day basis. i am not starving. i am not malnourished. i am not drinking polluted water. all by the grace of God.

i sleep in a bed. in a private space. by myself. safely. with a comforter. with an additional blanket. with pillow on top of pillow on top of pillow. in comfort. protected. in a bed by myself. all by the grace of God.

i have so much to be thankful for, but i am not grateful enough to say thank you. when will contentment be the characteristic of undeserving human beings like me?

i take it all for granted - i'm completely dissatisfied. time for change. time for change.
