A Lovely Day

Last Friday was a lovely day for many reasons, but for three in particular...

1. In the morning I saw a beautiful rainbow reaching up and across the horizon. I haven't seen a rainbow in a long time and it was appreciated.
2. While driving back to work following my lunch break I passed by a local middle school. There's a brick retaining wall there and twenty or so kids sitting on it, swaying from side to side and as my vehicle got closer they started pumping their fists indicating I should honk. I appeased them and honked and laughed when they victoriously threw their hands up in the air, all while rhythmically swaying from left to right, left to right, left to right.
3. Later in the afternoon I smiled when I noticed Jesus Clouds. A picture perfect scene of the Heavens' light shining down and being filtered by the clouds, so that one can literally see the rays of sun beaming towards the Earth.
   

Annnd I'm back!

I guess I had a hiatus of sorts from blogging... I suppose not a whole lot has changed, but then again a lot has. It's weird. Anywho... You should be hearing more from me shortly. Whoever you are...

Have a lovely fall day!

Little Gestures

Last Thursday a couple of "little gestures" impacted me for different reasons...

1. While driving home from work I saw an older gentleman bundled up--coat, stocking hat, scarf, gloves, and all--making his way through the cold with a big ol' smile on his face. I haven't the faintest idea why he was smiling, but it was contagious.
2. During the Maundy Thursday service at my church a mom who was sitting two pew rows ahead of me shrugged her elementary aged son's head off of her shoulder after he had rested it there for a mere two seconds. I swear, he plopped his head into her shoulder gently and before he could even get comfortable she moved away from him. It made my heart a bit sad.

Little gestures--moments, sightings, contacts, greetings--can be sooo very big.
