Waterfall of a day

Good Morning World...

  Do you ever have days, turning into weeks that are good, but something is missing, or just status quo?
My life is truly a "Gift" everyday, but I tend to let the everyday of life get in my way!
As I began to write this morning it reminded me of waterfalls.....surprise that hiking comes to my mind...:)

As you near the falls through your heavy breathe you hear the faint sound of water falling. My first thoughts is it a big waterfall or just a small one? Drawing near you can almost feel the humidity from the spray, it must be a big one! You dig in on the uphill climb with anticipation!
There it is...beautiful and dramatic site. Where does the water come from, how did the rocks move and shift to lay in their own puzzle formation?
My eyes are drawn to the top, glistening sun creates a glimmer that is indescribable.
The spray is soaking me but can't or don't want to move, it feels cold, refreshing, but also powerful and daring!

I see so many avenues for the water to flow, some meandering to the sides finding their own quiet place, the main water is powerful and direct knowing exactly where it wants to go...it has purpose.
The rocks are glistening like diamonds, others are covered with a velvety soft green of the moist moss. Creation is overwhelming with it's beauty, with it's gift to give.

If I don't make the decision to get out and hike, I miss this amazing experience of life!

As the Day begins!

Thank you Lord for another amazing beginning! The "Gift" will be extraordinary today!
The sun is out bright and clear...after weeks, it seems, of cloud and cool. It crisp, and clear and new today!
Tim actually gets to join me in a day filled with work, adventures, meeting family, and an appointment to make some changes!
I love spending time with my best friend, he inspires me to push on...but also we get to open doors of the day together!

I am so Thankful today for life, and the abundance of it! I am healthy, Happy and truly alive! What more can I ask...Yes there is "life" behind these words, but after some quiet meditation, it's ok to have those "life" experiences because they do strengthen you. Thank you, for sharpening my sword!

Looking forward to the sights and sounds of everything offered!
