Y’know what I’d like, about now?
I’d like to find, and sit down by, a cozy little pond, well off the busy street, with damsel flies resting on the lily pads, frogs calling, and a few turtles basking on a log. I’d like to look down and see pumpkinseeds (sunfish, to some) making nests and guarding their eggs. And maybe an egret or a heron wading back and forth, looking for lunch.
I’d like to sit down and watch. And listen. Maybe there’s a dove or two cooing in the trees.
God’s stuff, all of it. Life at work. A haven of sanity in an evil age. No crazy stupid stuff going on. Just life. Just Creation.
More valuable than we can imagine.
