Have You Ever...

Have you ever noticed - 

• the perfect sunrise or sunset while running late to or from work?
• the freedom of dancing with your heart, even when at the same time you think your look awkward?
• how gentle a light breeze feels against your face while you focus on worries?
• the beauty of a smile when you had no intention to return it?
• the sound of a whisper in your ear when you did not feel like listening?
• the antics of an animal as it goes about daily life at the same time as you trudge though yours?
• the feel of the open road while you curse at the other drivers?
• the taste of your food as you try to eat as quickly as possible?
• the incredible smell of a lover's neck and the sensuality of being pressed against that one person before removing outer layers?
• the absolute joy of singing a song at the top of your lungs, even though there is no one around?
• the pure enjoyment of finding a childhood toy while trying to be a responsible adult
• the forgiveness of a mistake without hearing the internal damnation?
• the awesome sensation of putting on your favorite comfortable clothes without worrying about how they look?
• the feel of grass underneath your bare feet without worrying about stepping on something that might cause pain?

Have you ever lived the way we are meant to?
