Pondering a Surprise of Love

1/28/2025

I have earned my life through virtue of having lived it.
I have “earned” delights in the same way that I will have earned the sufferings to come.
I am bound unmoving to the tumultuous present moment.
I should be so lucky for the moments of peace and love.
They are so very rare, but I have grasped a truly divine gift to produce them through a newfound font of love.

What a gift it is to be alive. To meet sweet young people and hide together under an ocean of Egyptian cotton.
I hope to be grateful that my moments of clarity in all the tumbling are visions of love and sharing my space.
I exist here.
I am not alone.
And better, someone else can see the same world as me, at least a little.
