The ideal day is just in our minds right! Something will always be off statistically while we are here on earth. Our devices I think make that even more a slight possibility. As a historian and lover of books I could read cookie cutter stories one right after another and get that sense of a beautiful ideal day from the old pioneer days with the early settlers. No electronics early to bed and rising with the sun or the roosters.
Those days ruminate in my mind of the long time-ago innocence of our land. All of the nature everywhere now we balk at the squirrels and deer when they scurry around us and our modern roads and vehicles.
This question is hard for me to pinprick down. I know I have had many wonderful nearly idyllic days, but describing them seems so difficult to do. I can only describe from my viewpoint if something comes out of left field I wouldn’t know about who or when that might happen. Just recently after my birthday I have had some wonderful days until the mail arrived one day. It turned everything upside down for me and I was nervous and afraid about what to do in order to comply with the letter. For a week I was absolutely worried about everything, because of that mail but secondly due to a phone message.
Two different days, good days, but I was alerted to two different concerns that I had to handle one way or another. Doing so with my lack of capacity burdened my mind and nearly gave me another ulcer that I didn’t need. Unfortunately only one of those matters has been fully taken care of I am waiting on slow bureaucrats to work on my paperwork to fix the problem.
Even when it comes to my boyfriend I am afraid to dream too much. It’s always in the back of my mind that good things can easily be taken away no matter how much you want them. Although if it truly is in God’s will for us to be together it will happen. I have lived long enough to know not all of our wants and dreams come true not even our ideal days. I couldn’t even fully have my birthday as my ideal day. It wasn’t even something as trivial as not getting presents, but something happened that morning that nearly freaked me out, because I know it wasn’t of God. Someone was being cruel that morning and even that evening a second slightly lesser text beeped at me.
The ideal day for me after reading my book on Eve would be in the garden of Eden before the fruit and that deadly bite unleashed its torment. Adam and Eve knew the animals names and the animals knew them. There was trust especially when the animals needed help birthing their animals. Can you even imagine that. Jill Eileen Smith wrote this so well and I am not even halfway through the book.
