I saw something the other day that I didn't expect to see. It was breathtaking. It
Verged on perfection, the raw
natural kind of perfection that can't be imitated, duplicated, or replicated. I was awestruck, dumbstruck,
and stagestruck. What I saw was exciting, arousing, marvelous, delightful, and delicious. It was a reward to
the ordinary, which
Happens to be most of the population, defining the dimensions of dreaminess, indicating
that what we think is sometimes what is actually real.
I gave silent thanks for what I saw, and this is the only way I can communicate my thankfulness, which I felt I
must express.
Very rarely is a gift given where the giver doesn't know that they
Have provided such a gift, and
where the recipient is so grateful yet unable to express their appreciation for the thoughtfulness, the wonderfulness,
and the uniqueness of such a gift.
Even now, days after I saw it, the memory remains, strong and
Vivid, and untarnished. I can only think of those
who actually receive this sight day after day, given freely, and
Hope that they can appreciate it as much as I
do, and appreciate the even deeper and more trusting rewards that it indicates for them. For while my eyes
appreciated this sight, for others it is a prelude and a promise, a commonplace
Vision (for them) that is so out of the ordinary
that I
Hope it is never seen as other than a privilege to
View,
Honor, and experience.
