Feels like home

You're that feeling, when you finish a long hike, and you get to the summit, and you look out across the wonderful world that God created for us, and you lose your breath for a moment because of the unimaginable and indescribable beauty.

You're that feeling, when you come home after a long day of work, and you get to kick off your shoes and sink onto your couch and close your eyes for a moment, finally feeling peace.

The moment when you bite into a new food you've never tried, and your tastebuds are flooded with something new and wonderful and you wonder how you lived your whole life without that food.

That moment when you're in a crowd of people and you walk past an attractive stranger, and you make eye contact, and your stomach flies up to your throat, releasing butterflies into your abdomen.

When you hear a new song for the first time and it's so catchy and you feel the music in your soul and you wish you knew the words so you could belt along, but you just let the music fill you up and you soak it up.

The feeling at the end of a long road trip, and you have a full bladder, and you can finally use the toilet.

You're the feeling when you see that your phone didn't crack after you dropped it on concrete.

You're the feeling when you see a beautiful sunrise and your eyes can't take in the colors fast enough.

You're the feeling you get when you hear a baby laughing.

You are most definitely that feeling when you see your food coming in the restaurant and it is much past your dinner time.

The feeling when you walk into a clean hotel room and it smells nice and you can just throw yourself onto the bed and you feel soft and comfortable and new all at once.

You're like walking into a museum you've never been to before, being able to marvel at all that was created by amazing hands.

You're like reading a good book, and never wanting it to end, and wishing that you could forget and start over so you could experience it for the first time all over again.

You're when the fever finally breaks when you've been sick for days, and you can finally relax and you know that your body is working miracles.

You're the feeling when you put on fuzzy socks on Christmas Day.

You're like walking into Barnes and Noble.

The feeling of showering after a long week of camping.

The feeling of having a friend introduce you to a new restaurant, exciting but enthralling while still making you the right amount of nervous.

You're starting a new series on Netflix, comfortable, enjoyable, and much too addicting.

You're the feeling when you get to the end of a roller coaster, and your heart is beating fast, and adrenaline is coursing through your veins, and you realize that that was the most exhilarating experience, and you want to do it over again.

You're every stupid analogy and more.

You're like looking at every sunrise, every horizon, every beautiful skyline, every natural work of God.

You're like every piece of art, made by the common hands trying to bring beauty into the world.

You're like every new experience, exciting and wonderful and breathtaking.

You're like every good memory, comfortable and loving and warm.

You have a way of making everything remind me of you. In the best possible way.
