A Bird, Maybe a Cardinal
I have always felt like a bird. I like to migrate, usually during the summer i have to travel somewhere. I love to sing and at the most inopportune moments such as 2 in the morning. I also like shinny things...I am beginning to sound crazy am I not? But this love for shinny things is deep! Here, let me explain...We are told to be the light of the world, but wait! I am completely sinful aside from the Holy Spirit, so who can I be a light? The most beautiful explanation i have heard is the analogy of the sun and the moon. The moon is just a big hunk of dirt orbiting the earth, but it provides light in the darkest places...so how does it do that without producing its own energy? It is a reflection of the sun...when we look at the big shinny moon, pouring its shine down on us, it is reflecting the sun. I want to be the reflection of the Son; I only want people to see the Lord in me! I fail so often, and every moon has its dark days, but the Son never stops shinning...even when I fail as a human, the Lord is perfect and will never fail you. So that is how I explain my crazy attraction to shinny things...I know there are more out there who know what I'm talking about, the sparkles on the pavement, the light on the water, the reflection off a ring...they mesmerize you. There is just something about light.
