I actually saw the sun today!

After what seems like several weeks, I finally saw the sun today. I was flying out of the lovely city of Pittsburgh to a training event in Jacksonville. But I saw the sun after only being in the air for minutes.

I don't think I'll ever cease to be amazed at the beauty of all of creation. As we quickly flew through the cloud deck that hovered over the greater Pittsburgh area, the sun was there bright as ever.

As we were ascending to our cruising altitude, I actually caught myself noting how warm the sun was as it came streaming through the window! I said a quick prayer of thanksgiving for the Sun and everything that it is for us. I was quickly energized, warmed and thankful.

Groundhog day is coming soon, and so is spring. With it are the many days when the cold and snow of winter will yield a mystery. I love the seasons, but I am really looking forward to seeing that sun more often.

I hope that your experience in Florida was a good one. I'm glad that you're back safely.
