Day 25: Melting away pessimism

When you've lived long enough, a part of you recognizes that endings are not happily ever after,  things don't always get better and life isn't fair.

A piece of me always holds on to real truth and possibly that bad things will happen.  But I chose faith anyways.

This morning I went for a run.
It was a glorious run.
The sun was shining.
My body felt healthy.
My mind emptied by the focus on running and the green bursting into life all around me.

At that moment anything felt possible.
The rational, planned piece of me was silenced and I could just enjoy the blessings directly on the path ahead of me.
