The difference a day can make

Looking through this window pane
At the world nearby
I see nothing there but rain
Makes me want to cry
How did this circumstance find me
Hidden so safely here?
What have I done to deserve these tears?

Then again another day
Different point of view
Searching higher than before
This time I see You
How did this miracle find me?
Why do You know my name?
What have I done to deserve this love anyways?
You know I can’t say

Now I’m driving down the road
With great music on the radio
And a great big sun in the sky
It’s good to be alive
It’s good to be alive

Can the joy of life be found in simple gratitude?
And is gratitude as simple as perspective?

This morning was the first time I was able to drive to work in my new car. The sun was rising (not enough to see it, but enough to turn the sky a soft shade of pink), and the world just seemed somehow brighter than it did last week when it everything falling down around me. This song came to mind, so I thought I'd post a couple of the verses. =)

It's a happy day!
