Bertilson Fri, 29 Jan 2010 23:12:33 +0000 http://www.pontificationadnauseam.com/?p=1473#comment-3723 Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous that people complain about life not being 'fair' all the time, when it's really not fair in a completely opposite way than they think. And I definitely agree about the beauty and goofiness and all that. Days filled with those are just stunningly amazing. (And we DEFINITELY do not deserve them. I sure know I don't.)

Joy, fun, beauty, goodness, and goofiness are great. Of course, God sends us sorrow too: but I think that's so we can enjoy the joy even more. I look forward to reading your writing, and listening to your thinking. P.S. Speaking of commonplace things being beautiful, have you ever taken the time to think about - really think about - a single blade of grass? Try it sometime: you'll be surprised. Well said!
