Clarity

Lately life has just been a blur. Well, it has been for a while now. But this week has been different; I've seen everything more clearly. On Tuesday I was driving home from the band concert and couldn't take my eyes off the tree tops. The precision of the branches was fantastic. I could not only see clearly, but could feel the wind brushing every part of my body, could hear the birds and the crickets singing. I felt fully alive for the first time in a long time. And then today I was walking to my car and saw a dragon fly. It was a beautiful amber color and moved so smoothly. Now that probably sounds super weird, but it made me notice how much of God's creation I've been taking for granted. Then feeling these remind me of who I was three years ago, and it almost makes me want to go back. I want to be completely clear and alive!
