Today was quite a beautiful day. Church, church, church, family. The weather, the people, the food (bibimnengmyun – bomb), the message, the laughter, smiles, hugs, yells, good-loving.
I am so. Amazed.
In between alla that… I lost a contact lens. Almost. Something got stuck in my eye so I took it out (the lens) for a second to clean it before sticking it back in. I got someone to stand next to me to block out the wind. When my finger got in touch with my eyeball… no lens. Wind-block fail.
There was at one point, a dozen people including me scouring the ground for this tiny piece of clear plastic (? not sure if it’s plastic but it feels like it haha). To no avail. I gave up five minutes into it. I got over it quick, I usually do. I’ll save, scrimp and scrape what I can over a couple weeks and order me another. No biggie. But some people surprised me with their adamancy. Even after I gave up, they were on all fours. I was quite blessed. Hahah. The search ensued.
Until.
“I FOUND IT!!!!!!!!!!!” – from my friend, Sandra. You don’t understand. You. Don’t. Understand. Okay maybe you do, but you really don’t. To find a clear contact lens less than a centimeter in diameter in the dirt…
I feel like that lady who lost the coin and when she found it, she had a party. Man.
Thanks Sandra! Haha I don’t even know if you’ll see this. I owe you a bingsoo. Hahah!
Anyway. This is getting kinda long.
I just want to say. I’m in love. Yes. Everyday. It’s the same story, just… another day, another moment. It’s why I don’t care about anything. It’s why I laugh so easily. It’s why I breathe deep and find peace. It’s why I’m more than just living, I’m alive. It’s why… I am who I am. I’m happy. Really, truly, deeply. I’m here. This is exactly where I want to be. Not a second before or ahead, not a millimeter to the left or right, not anywhere else. Just here. Here is where I want to be. Because here is where he is. Yes. I am enamored, consumed, giddy with all that is good and true. All that is good and true.
Those who seek You lack no good thing.
