What an absolutely gorgeous early fall day. Bright sun. Cool breeze. Feathery clouds. I love this time of year. I took the entire day off for a doctor’s appointment - and I am so glad I did! I went to Caribou with my book this morning and sat and read and enjoyed a Mint Condition. After I left there I felt complete freedom. I didn't have to hurry - there was no stress. I was calm, content, filled with joy and peace and happiness. Driving with the window down, the breeze in my hair and great tunes on the radio. This day stretches out expectantly before me with an endless array of possibilities! I can do whatever I want. No expectations. What a wonderful gift. If I had this opportunity every day would I still cherish it? Or take it for granted and waste it? Would it still be special? Joyful? Would I still take (and revel in) time alone with God? I'm so happy today. So totally, totally happy. Smiling. Joyful. Patient - I didn't even care when somebody cut me off in traffic. I just smiled and let them in. What a wonderful, wonderful gift today has been. I think I'll go for a walk..... :)
