Catching the moment

Catching moments is easy. It is definitely something that improves the quality of life. One just needs to tune in. I caught a few moments during this week.

Rabbits playing in the field beneath my house.
Watching my love sleep at five in the morning.
Waking up to the sun rising 'cos I forgot to close the curtains the night before.
Watching a rabbit enjoy the sun this morning, just outside my window. He sat there, with his eyes closed, letting the sun warm every hair on his body. Enjoying life, I guess.

Go ahead. Go catch those moments. They are just waiting for you to notice them.

Returning to the surface

I admit. It has been a long time since my last post. I have been living some amazing months. Although amazing, it somehow has worn me out. I have been feeling tired and for some reason, it has felt like coming from within, rather than from the outside. Why I haven't reached for the surface, I don't know. Then I stumbled over a book that made me push upwards: Robin Sharma's The Monk who sold his Ferrari. I hardly had begun to read it before I noticed that it was all in my own hands. Why had I forgotten all about that? It's amazing how fast one can slip. Stray. I get up again. I decide to do my best and not slip again. I decide to return to my posts, to reflect over life and why it is important to live as well as we can.
