Things that amaze me
I will try to keep this list short for there are A LOT of things that amaze me. I guess simple minds are really that easy to entertain. (I take that as a complement thank you) I will start with the one that amazes me the most; my Father in Heavens love for me. Why? Why would He love some one who is so bitter and angry? He puts people and things here for me to make sure I will be ok. Three vegatables, two fruits, and one flower. Right? He put another Sugar here for me in this place of great struggle. He is a yellow lab with those big brown eyes that see into your soul and seem to have great compassion for what you are going thru. My Father also put the most amazing scenary here for me to look at. He also provided family and friends that have become my family to pull at me to keep moving and learning. I am funny huh Chavonne? It is really nice to know that what I have to say and what I am going thru is a light in someone's day. Thank you for letting me know that. I wonder sometimes if my Father in Heaven is like us as new parents with our child on their first Christmas. Pulling the wrapping off just enough to get them excited enough about what is inside that box to finish unwrapping it themselves. Does He put things in our paths just enough to get us excited enough to keep going and see what is around the next turn? Even though we are older now and know in the back of our minds about the cold water effect? (thank you Jeremiah) But for some reason He knows that we will not be able to stop ourselves and look any way. Something in us pulls us towards it every time. Maybe it is a line from Him to us that continues to pull us ever so much closer to our view of the stars from the other side and closer to the warmth of the Sun. I know, I am waxing eloquent. I have been taught by the best. :) Other things that amaze me; every time that Eric touches my hand or face and I want to cry and let out all the things I have been holding in for so long. How does the simple touch of his hand have that effect on me? Why does the sound of his snoring put me to sleep? Shouldn't it keep me awake? Why are mice so cute but cause so much chaos in my life? And why if they are not venegful, just hungry do they look for food in the bathroom? What do they eat in there? Nevermind, I do not want to know! EEUUWWWAA!! I am also find it amazing how when I am sitting in my chair outside and the sun is beating down on my face and legs thru the trees, I can feel the warmth only on the parts of my skin that has the sun on it and the skin that is in the shade is cooler. Shouldn't it be pretty much the same because after all I am outside in the sun? Amazing! I am amazed by how my face instantly turns into the wind like I am searching for some new smell or just to move the hair out of my face. It also does that when I turn a corner into the sun and I close my eyes and concentrate on the warmth of it on my face. I am amazed by how the love I have for Eric and my boys is always just right there under the surface of my skin, ready to spill out at any time. And back around to the beginning again how I feel a pull of something in my chest to get me moving forward. I can physically feel something pull me from my chest toward what I want. Even if it is as simple as going to the kitchen to get something to eat. There are SO much more that amazes me but for right now I am feeling a pull (or more correctly a push from Eric) to get in the shower. So this is it for now, check in later for more. Angie
