as i ambled down the sidewalk,
a mix of soft and crunchy leaves under my feet,
and a few drifting from the sky,
i had an inkling.
just like the sunlight slipping through the empty spaces,
that no matter what,
no matter how tumbling my thoughts,
or twisting my heart,
that life,
life is oh, so good.
and it made me smile,
just to realize that
I am here.
p.s. i could use more James Taylor in my life.
