So last summer I was running late at night and I remember really calling out to God. It was a real turning point in my life and God actually gave me a sign. Three signs! It was an amazing thing to call upon Him in my need and see nature itself respond. But tonight, I called upon Him for guidance... hoping and grasping at some sign. Nothing happened. There was no confirmation or show of power at all.
But then I realized that it was already there. The moon shone brightly and the lake water shimmered and the wind picked up and I caught a scent of something beautiful. My confirmation was in the fact that I was alive and aware and happy and whole and seeking something larger than myself. I realized that God had answered me in spades.
i like watching my bichon frise get angry with my boxer puppy, i like spending money on useless things that i will never use, i like gas prices being outrageous, i like eating boca chicken when im not even a vegetarian just because it tastes better, and i like wearing my dad's "0 to naked in 6.2 beers" hat.

It's a great realization.
