It feels like I\u2019m marinating in love.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Like I\u2019m carrying a thick layer of exquisite laziness.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
High on life.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Yeah.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Drinking coffee feels good.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Coaching feels fantastic.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Listening to someone, or something, is a mysterious experience.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
And walking down the street feels awesome.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Did you know that life can be lived with such ease and simple joy?<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I feel I could carry the sun on the palm of my hand.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
This is such a long way from the time when I thought I needed things, many things, MORE things.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Confidence, financial success, a six-pack, enlightenment.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Not now, not here.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I\u2019m so sorry that I\u2019m not able to accurately describe how this feels.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It\u2019s just so sweet, so gentle, with a splash of excitement.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
But not exactly.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The bridge to my thoughts has been raised.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
There\u2019s a skirmish going on at the other side, but it\u2019s too far away to get engaged, or I simply can\u2019t be bothered to even try.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It\u2019s all a heavy mellowness, everything is slow but my mind feels clear.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Clean.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Clear.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Clarity.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
I am a poem.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
