And there I stood…

I stood in awe today for several minutes watching a thousand colors move, blend and change shape in rapid succession. Its like enjoying a grand orchestra of many players that never played the same set of notes twice. This tree outside my apartment, was moving quite seamlessly with the Lubbock wind. I looked at that undeniably gorgeous, living piece of life, and thought…it’s been here all the while I’ve lived in this house…likely just as beautifully perfect and peaceful as it is right now. How many people have lived here and seen this tree, just as I have? Every time i’ve been angry, frustrated, and feeling sorry for myself… it has been standing there… just being alive. I think maybe, it’s time for me to live a little.
