Green
We were back at Nags Head Woods Preserve today. We walked to the deck at the visitor's center and admired the view. The weather was amazing. It was cool, sunny, and with a slight breeze. We could hear birds singing, but otherwise it was perfectly quiet. It was so peaceful. And so green! The water is so covered in a kind of green algae that it looks solid. It was one of those moments you just want to drink in and hold onto. I found God there today in the cool, quiet green.

When you think about how long those woods and the ancient dunes they cover have been there it's oddly comforting. Your own mortality doesn't seem like that big of a deal anymore. Life in one form or another may not go on for eternity, but it sure seems like it's had a good run so far.
