In the Peace and Quiet Stillness

In the quietness of morning I learn about you. You give me the peace and the patience and the understanding that I need for the day. Thank you for this gift.

I've had the incredible experience of being able to get up the last few days super early in the morning and with exception of monday, I have not had to go to work. Sunday morning out at the lake I was up at 5:30 to go in a canoe and paddle my way into the sunrise. It was amazing how peaceful things were with the loons and the stillness that was the morning, The conversation that happened between the 8 of us that were there was incredible! Tuesday morning I was up at about 7 and driving to the golf course where I met a friend that I see only about twice a year. My brother and I met him and tee'd off at 8:15. Those first few holes in the cool of the morning with the smell of fresh cut grass and still some dew on the greens was incredible. He was there, And now this morning as I drove to work to discover our roof hasn't yet arrived and to now sit here at 7:45 in the quiet of the house drinking coffee and eating a banana chip muffin, he is here. I'm so thankful for this life i've been given, i've said it before and i'll say it again, I've been given a 2nd chance at life in the last two years, one I never thought possible. I didn't expect my days to be happy again and I didn't expect to be surrounded by the most incredible people that only make living life that much more incredible!

I want to be here to encourage you, if your reading this I mean you. I want to be available to talk if you want to. If you need someone to listen I will try my hardest to be here. My lines are always open to whoever needs it.
