Something I really missed during my time in Alabama were all the beautiful bridges in Jacksonville. I missed water in general...who am I kidding- I missed everything. So, I've been taking it all in, and as I become reacquainted with the landscape of my beautiful homeland, I've been completely overwhelmed with a feeling of thankfulness.
This bridge (the dames point) takes us to the zoo, aunt Kim's house, and the airport. There is something so majestic about going over a huge bridge (and something incredibly scary about going over little ones.) When I'm not the one driving, I just gaze off to where the sky and the water meet- way off in the farthest reaches. As I gaze, my inner eagle imagines flying right out of the car window and swooping over the glassy water- doing a few air spins on my way down. Sometimes, I see dolphins doing flips, and I remember the girl who felt like a fish out of water for 6 years. Seriously, it's only been a month and I almost cant remember feeling that way.
Dear God,
Thank you for bringing me home...
