I'm sitting on a big rock that conveniently just fits the shape of my butt. I have coffee breath. I kinda jumped a fence to get here. I see birds and I can hear the train.
Awesome, moving right along.
Whenever I think of Virginia, the state as a whole, a big blanket of green lushness comes to mind.
Not like a literal blanket, I'm talking metaphorically here.
(this isn't some ad campaign for virginia, I promise)
But just being in that green, that metaphorical blanket if you will, is just so comforting to me. I can rest in the knowledge that all of it, the trees, the birds even the train was created for my enjoyment and for me to marvel in.
I could now go into detail about how we all need to slow down in our lives and actually do some of that marveling, bit I'm going to try to stay away from that because it's far too overused. (Oh look, I kinda just fail-boated didn't I?)
The earth was made for us to rule over. And I intend to do so with a steady hand and a kind heart. I don't mean that I'm going to become a crazy environmentalist or whatever, but I'm going to fulfill my purpose in life, whatever it may be.
