I think I'm beginning to realize...
that life needs conversations with strangers through open windows at stop lights.
life needs open windows. and sunglasses. and hair blowing. and that halfway smile of delicious sun-kissed moments.
life needs Mat Kearney on Pandora. and that line I love on repeat.
life needs corn pops at 12am. just because.
it needs robin hood. or beauty and the beast. or a children's book on the floor.
life needs long stretches. and sleeping in and too many pillows.
life needs sitting by the pool in the middle of the night for no reason. life needs to look at the stars. life needs that spot on his shoulder that makes everything else melt away.
life needs a smile and a little moment to think in.
I am happiest in very small things. and they've been saving me lately.
life needs a little charm and God's been sending it my way lately.
12:30 now. should be sleeping. early morning coming.
i want to put my things in the back of a car and drive, california maybe. it's not that i mind my life or even want to change it. quite the contrary, i am quite content.
but i want to feel the wheels turning. and the wind blowing. and pour myself out onto the highway. and hear them singing my heart on the radio.
i just want the adventure and endless hours of the beauty of a car on open highway.
charming.
