Intentional

Today I discovered that God made the sky so high so that all the big and small, beautiful and ugly birds don’t thwack their heads on the ceiling as they fly and swim about. & that makes sense to me because I can finally understand why God made your smile so warm and kind: it wasn’t so I wasted every hour of every day thinking about the next big thing I can do to see it, no, it’s much more sensible than that. It’s so every poor soul and every lucky person that sees your smile as you say thank you to the ticket man when you board the train home from work can understand that Heaven is real and you don’t have to die to get a glimpse.
