Evidence Based Faith

There are moments

when peace comes over me

and I am ok with everything,

even the things that I’m not.

They arrive at odd times

of their own accord,

often when least expected…

when washing dishes

when waiting on freight trains

when taking out the garbage

even when cleaning

the kitty litter.

Whenever they happen

I know I’m in the right place,

at the right time,

doing the right thing.

And the older I get

the more often they happen…

Which is the basis for my faith

that one day they will be the rule

and not the exception

if I live long enough.
