Things on my mind.

Oh...goodness...

Many many things on my mind.

Some of which are too private to put all over the internet. But one thing I will say is this - it was a beautiful day, weather-wise, in Rexburg. A gorgeous 75 degrees, a light breeze making it's way through the trees; the kind of day that lures you out of doors to drink in the sunshine. 

Jessica and I went to Porter Park for the afternoon to talk, and sleep and just be. It was incredible. The thing about Rexburg/everywhere-that's-not-California, is that people can't help but be outside on a day like today. A lovely spring day that just makes you smile is a rare commodity here, whereas in California, or at least Simi Valley, they are a common and every day thing. At the park there were blankets spread here and there with friends and couples catching the rays of the sun, hammocks pulled tight between trees adorned with young students taking their Sunday naps, boys attempting to steal some hearts away with their cheesy overly-practiced love songs. 

It's fantastic really. 

Anyway, the afternoon was wonderful. "Just too marvelous for words." 

i thank You God for most this amazing day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything which is natural which is infinite which is yes  (i who have died am alive again today, and this is the sun's birthday;this is the birth day of life and of love and wings:and of the gay great happening illimitably earth)  how should tasting touching hearing seeing breathing any--lifted from the no of allnothing--human merely being doubt unimaginable You?  (now the ears of my ears awake and now the eyes of my eyes are opened)
