Nothing better than...

Going for your usual 4k run with...:

-Weather a few degrees cooler
-Earth fresh from showers
-Two full-arch rainbows
-(Literal) Golden haze (literally) bathing and infusing everything in sight -- ne'er grass of a brighter green, fake enamel with an other-worldly glow (beats Photoshop effects hands down!)
-Red sun in a lighter-shade-of-same sunset
-Indigo tints in the blue
-"'Beautiful!' [pointing at rainbows], 'yes! beautiful red sun!' [pointing at sunset behind you]" exchange in Taiwanese, after being caught staring upward, while running
-Sit-ups under an inky caelum
-And assurances of "yea, though I walk through the valley...", should the need arise, during the last part, in the dark

Is it any wonder I love and trust in an "unseen" God?!


(One of my favorite versions of this one [the sound]:)
