- "Life is nourishment for the soul. Consume it." -



You must begin living your
life with a wide-eyed child-like awareness
or you will have missed it all.
It's not too late.  I don't care if you are 


20 or 100 years old.  You still have plenty of



time to see such things of your choosing.

To have walked on this earth and not seen

the stars,


To raise a child and never have lowered

yourself to their level,



To watch the rain and never have stood in it


soaked to the bones,

To hear the birds sing and never have danced


to their song,
r
To close your eyes and not see your dreams

fulfilled is like never having lived at all.

Life is not something you live through, it's

something that envelopes you, caresses you,


holds you while you consume it.

Live today like there's no tomorrow, like there's



no second chances, no do-overs.

There is so much to do and so little time.

Look to the skies.


Take a deep breath.

Get down on your hands and knees.


Climb high upon the mountain.


Smell, taste, touch everything.

Your moment is now.  


Live it.
