take a moment.

Did you know that being alive can be the most beautiful thing?  Were you aware that heartbreak and mistakes and excitement and headaches and being really tired and singing your heart out and not knowing anything ever and feeling everything is what makes everything worthwhile?  I don't think I did.  But I think I'm learning it.  There are moments where you feel all the excitement of being in the biggest city in the world with the contentment of cuddling on a couch on a warm rainy day.  Times when you are spastic and crazy with the excitement of seeing your favorite sports team in person while surrounded by all the people you love.  Days when all you seem to want is someone to love and hold you, but you know that living and loving the life you have now will only make love better when you finally decide to throw yourself on the line for it.

Did you know that the best part of life is that we can feel?  How simple, yet how glorious.  What an incredible life we live, what magnificent depths we are able to reach in the way we love and hate and fear and laugh.

What a blessing it is to be alive.
