Moments

This week's heartbeat is delivered with
wonder at life's many shapes of freedom.

[Originally posted on 25 September 2003]

We learn to take our freedoms for granted,
especially within each day's small moments.

Running late, out of breath, stressed out,
it's simple to allow life to take us over.

We run faster, we breathe harder and we continue
to fill our days with the business of living.

One day it will all stop suddenly, without warning
leaving us to wonder what it is we're missing.

Sometimes we're lucky and we're given a chance
to have a brief experience of life fully stopped.

We can create new freedoms for ourselves
and recapture those we forgot we had.

Where are your small moments of freedom?

Naturally,

Founder
