thank you. god.

it's late - quiet.
i like the quiet - although not the late.
and instead of saying "one of these days i'll find time to sleep enough",
i'd like to plan to sleep plenty soon! :)
the day was full of little moments that make me smile.
i like the people i work with even though they're just as annoying
as i am sometimes.
i like that there's a real rawness and am grateful for talks
about
failures
human selfishness
and how to not drive around the block twice to see that woman walking down the road again -since you're married.
and if guy meets one of those beautiful women: to thank god for the beauty he created.

i haven't made a trip to the grocery store after dark in a while -
since the 17-yr-old knows what to shop for now and there is time during the day.
so i went today and had to think of "convenience stores" by buddy wakefield.
forget the three or four cusswords, just listen to the deep longing to know who you meet and to be present:

god. i imagine our god to think about us so much more in loving detail and inexplicable depth - fully.
and i'm glad that us humans: we feel.

i laughed a lot at the grocery store while i was on the phone talking to one of my favorite people in the world.
so the flour bag exploding down my side really didn't bother me.
