it's...

**I wrote this 2-3 weeks ago, but then my computer had an error and closed the window. I thought I lost it, but I didn't!**

it's the feeling you have when the sun comes out after two days of rain...
it's going for a run in the park on a sunday evening, enjoying the remainder of the weekend...
it's seeing lots of other people there doing the same...
it's the smell of spring...
it's the sight of a block lined with newly green trees...
it's seeing kids laughing and playing in the park...
it's finding a dollar in the pocket of a coat you haven't worn for a while...
it's walking down the stairs at the same time the subway is arriving...
it's having just enough quarters to do your laundry...
it's the taste of water after a run...
it's the bright yellow tulips in bloom...
it's laughing hard with good friends...
it's a breath of fresh air in the city...
it's a cook breeze on your face...
it's the little things...
it's enjoying the creation that surrounds me each day...
it's realizing that the creation i enjoy now will some day be renewed...
it's knowing that i'll be able to enjoy it forever...
"The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God." Romans 8: 19-21
