By Ted Grussing
… of life or so it seems as you gaze into this cactus bloom and the richness of color says I am alive. Funny dream I had this morning; when I woke I was face down and stretched out clinging to the rock face of a steep mountain with my hands on a slope that was covered with patches of brilliant green lichen and moss and I could see forever … a smile spread across my face as I said out loud “I’M ALIVE”!!! and it has continued throughout the day … the knowledge of what a beautiful world we live on, the fragility of life and the deep appreciation for this gift of life acknowledged by a smile on my face and the thought that for now I am alive.
So it was a good day for me and I hope for you … need to be back up by 5AM so a wrap it is.
Smile and share your joy
Ted
Hold high your head and be an honest man.
May kindness guide your daily steps
And in each deed and thought let Christ’s sweet soul always reflect itself,
And love your fellow men as I love you.
May words unkind and false ne’er pass your lips,
Nor harsh and low ambitions drive you on
