What a great run !! The tempo just built and built like a good movie and when it was over there was a joy and thankfulness that sometimes come with a workout well done.
Driving home in my truck, thinking of nothing important in particular, I noticed that I was smiling. At first I felt a little stupid and I wondered what folks that I passed must have thought about this old geezer grinning, going down the road. Then smiling even broader at my smiling, it sort of hit me. I am happy. I am at peace with myself, others and God. I am happy.
Presently, I have all kinds of dragons and demons to face, I didn't hit the lottery and I surely don't have near enough money. Everyone in my family is not healthy. Things are a long way from being perfect in my life, but God has given me reason to be happy; a reason to smile.
So if you see someone grinning to himself as he drives down the road, don't laugh. He just may be happy and it may just be me.
Such a beautiful feeling when you have that kind of inner happiness that radiates out. I bet if anyone saw you, they experienced an unexpected burst of happiness themselves, because it's almost impossible to see someone smiling such a genuine smile and not have it be contagious.
