I still haven't found what I am looking for, and that is perfectly alright.

Bono had it right when he sang "I want to run, I want to hide, I want to tear down the walls that hold me inside, I want to reach out and touch the flame, where the streets have no name...but I still haven't found what I am looking for." This song needs to be on the soundtrack of life. Play it when you start a road trip, when you find yourself in love, when you question every ounce of your faith, when you triwl in the sun. It reminds us that the quest for the known turns into a race of endurance in the unknown.

There are so many unknowns ahead of me and yet these lyrics and wise voices of friends and family, tell me to get comfortable in this uncertainity. Bono still hasn't found what he was looking for because what he was looking for was the unknown and that is a quest that will last a lifetime. I cannot think of a bigger blessing than to have the desire to continue to go, to search and chase the unknowns.

Thankful

I am thankful for heavy drops of rain
and bright sun.

I am thankful for the noise of wind
and for the silence at 6:45 a.m.

I am thankful for the ability to learn
and for sleep.

I am thankful for vision
and for hope.

I am thankful for the listeners in my life
and for the talkers

I am thankful for the smell of espresso
and the taste of peanut butter.

I am thankful for seeing in darkness.
