A Good Day

Today was a good day. It was a day with much joy, much contentment, much happiness. 

Much of what made it a good day was little things. Things not worth mentioning. Many were broad spectrum things, but I don't feel a need to get into them, either. 

It is enough to just know that it was a good day. We all need those once in a while. We need a day, where when we reach the close, we feel a little better than the day before. A chance to feel happy. To enjoy the lives that we are living. 

I hope that today was a good day for each of you, as well. And if it wasn't, tomorrow is another day...another chance for a good day. 

So I leave you with my song of the day. "We Are More" by Erin McKeown. A phenomenal artist and a great piece to listen to...on any day. 

We Are More
This morning I saw a glimmer of hope
In the eyes that I met at the door
Of separate futures and confident sutures
To the wounds that we have endured

You hate the words of war, but baby face it!
That's what it's been for us
We were never good fighters or very good soldiers
But through this we are more

It's victorian this embroidering ordering and
Sorting of memory to museum quality
In a box we are, we are and we're art
For the victims and tourists to see

And this victory we're part of is part and
Parameter of all that has come before
We were never good fighters or very good soldiers
But through this we are more

What's the harm in ruins, reminds us of who
We were in darker times
In the pieces of colonies, we'll find that we follow
A church of our own design

By our best, we're remembered, baptized we surrender
By air, by water, by shore
We were never good fighters or very good soldiers
But through this we are more
