I love this thing called life. The highs and lows. The ride, the rollercoaster it is. Love and loosing love, refinding then loosing it again.

Beauty ugliness, decay and the new, the fresh.

Uncertainty and predictability, both the challenge and the sure thing.

Conversation after silence, companionship after loneliness, connection, deeper connection after despair.

Have a great sunday all. Whatever you do, relish at least one moment of sight, or hearing or the miracle of the thought process and ponder the alternative reality of never having existed.

I'm so glad I'm here, now. In this moment.

Adios for now. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You are most definitely right Yorick; life is a roller coaster. The sun is shining on me as well... Even though is raining (I'm in Scotland so if its not blowing a 100 mile per hour gale and snowing the weathers good. [img]smile.gif[/img] )

Nice post Hugh!
Sunday is by now long gone for me - but I shall carry that thought into Monday.
Have to say I agree with you. I've had plenty of less than perfect moments, but plenty that were pretty near perfection too. The good and the bad make me who I am, and yes it is good to be alive!
