20210507 - Gratitude

You are alive! Just feel that as you are reading this. Right in this moment you are living. Through some miracle that you had very little to do with your body woke up this morning and you have the incredible luxury of experiencing another day on this planet, in this life. Whatever is going on in your life, whatever struggles you have currently, whatever joys you are celebrating, you live and you breath and you have no idea about how you do it. It just happens. Life happens in this body and it takes the shape of you. Your heart is beating, your lungs are breathing, your hands manipulate your surroundings to bring food and warmth to your body, the temple of the soul as they call it. One day, a day just like this one, you will not wake up. You will die, just like everyone else. There will come a time when you do not exist in this body anymore. But every day until then you are here and you are here now. How incredible is that?!
