There used to be a Hardee’s within walking distance of my house. I rarely went there as it was nothing special — something I passed every day. Apparently, not many others went there either and the Hardee’s closed. Now, even though the closest one is on the far side of town, I have regular cravings for their breakfast biscuit and make the trek.
I share this as a reminder — to myself as well as others — not to take for granted the goodness that is part of our daily lives. There is joy all around us if we actually see it instead of letting the ordinary blend into the background as a blur.
