The wind rushing through the trees

Most who know me know that I am wanting to move. I love it here but long to be closer to my sister and have the ability to travel cheaply if I so desire. Anyway, today I was walking back to my office from the bathroom and the wind was rushing through the trees. It sounded so cool and so relaxing. It is funny how the beauty of life around us passes us by most of the time. We take for granted the rush of the wind, the warmth of the sun, the sound of the ocean, the majesty of the mountains and all the other things that we don't see each day as we rush to obtain everything we can from each day. I am so thankful that God sees fit to remind us once in a while and let us see and hear things with a new attitude.

It is like when I finally stoppoed and really looked at Texas. God smacked me right up side the head and I 'crossed over'.

But I still want you here.

Thanks Jackie, I am realizing that the Bible verse that I so often fall back on relates to me: "Not that I speak in respect of want for I have found that whatsoever circumstances I am in, therin to be content." Who would have thunk it huh???
