It happens once in a while, where every hot blooded human is struck with an unexpected “good feeling.” There is not direct definition of a “good feeling” and therefore, I will describe it for you.
LITTY'S DEFINITION:
A good feeling is an emotion that is brought on by a thought or a moment from one’s life. One can think about it, analyze it, and then if it is a fond recalling of moments, then it results in a demure side smirk smile, which is unnoticeable to any passerby. A true “good feeling” is quiet, and modest…if you are overly excited…then I think that might be a “great feeling!” Haha…
I was walking up a bustling 12th street in the middle of Temple University, Philadelphia. Through my over-sized charmingly named “bumblebee” sunglasses, I glanced over to Anderson Strip (an outside eatery at Temple), and noticed it was just about dinner time.
“Jeezz….I’m old!” I thought
I didn’t recognize a single person out of the possible 100 who were waiting, and eating on their food. I thought about how lucky these freshmen are to have a “fresh” start to their college degrees. To have four years to decide on whom they’d want to become before being thrown out into the real world.
- I thought about how much I struggled with a major…
- How much I messed up…
- How I was so indecisive…
- All this, before I heard the still voice of the Lord
- I remembered how much I HATED BIOLOGY…
- How I was so persistent to stay in there…
- How I felt so trapped…How the Lord LITERALLY had to drag me out…
Thoughts were swarming all around inside, while I composed a steady walk, behind huge shaded glasses, up a never ending 12th street. Crossing the street I glanced, in passing, to my left at the Bio Life Building. Suddenly, everything seemed to travel in slow motion…
“My goodness, I don’t have to go in there anymore,” I thought to myself. “I’m free…I’m free…I never have to look at another chromosome, bacteria, plant chlorophyll, or stupid dead pig and identify its crappy, slimy duodenum!”
I quickly turned to the front with my unchanged, steady pace, and let out a sigh of relief. I bowed my head slightly to the ground, looked at the floor, and gave a small unknowing side smirk, which I caught about 5 seconds later.
“God is so good to me,” I thought.
And All I could Whisper was, "I love you...”
ANOTHER GOOD FEELING...
