To be alive is a wondrous thing.
To be able to see a sunrise, a dog wag its tail, or dew on a leaf.
To be able to hear anything is incredible.
A bird singing, water moving, soft voices in the distance.
And to feel skin against skin, salt spray on your face, grass under foot, or love.
And then to smell freshly cooked food, a bakery early in the morning, or a baby.
To be alive is a wondrous thing.
But to be consciously alive…..
Is rapturous
