GLORY

"Barn at Dawn", oil,
by Heidi Malott
     Today we had a glorious spring morning in Mystic, and it made me actually feel a little glorious myself. Honestly, I felt something like splendor inside me, almost as magnificent as the sunshine spreading around the town. I’m in no way a celebrity, but I felt somehow famous this morning, the way the fresh wind is famous, the way the shining forsythias on our bushes are famous. There’s a distinction in being alive on a morning like today’s. There’s majesty in making an omelet, and greatness in going to the grocery store. Some of us praise the Lord, and I praise the proud, impressive mornings in this regal world of ours.
