Amazement


I continue to be amazed by things unseen or undetectable: The sense that we can't sense it all.

You might be able to observe discipline and resolve. Initiative. Continuous progress. Contributions. Laughter. Attitude. A kindness spoken or received. Encouragement.

But comfort, contentment and inner peace? Introspection. Inner happiness. Character. A good conscience. The quietness of riding with an 81-year-old. The remembrance of a smell long ago. Missing a friend. Appreciation and gratitude. A good feeling. Faith in something or somebody. The spirit. The fleeting wind. Love. Friendship.

"The measure of a friendship is whether one is enriched in character, spirit or experience by virtue of the relationship." - anon.
