Purely in the Moment....

Before I forget, I want to write down so I can recall later -- that purely in the moment feeling. I had it today, as I left Elora after taking photos. I had stopped one last time to capture a window pic (which incidentally turned out as I had hoped!) and then got back in the car. I was greeted by the richness of the Stereophonics courtesy of my ipod, and the breeze blew in the window as I drove.... joy of the moment. A big smile, a warm feeling inside. Singing along, okay with it all. Hyper tuned into myself, the moment, my surroundings.... it felt so damn good. Imagine if that sensation could be channelled more regularly. That is my goal. I am realistic, every moment of everyday is not that 15 minutes. But 15 minutes is good. I could take 15 minutes everyday! Today I met someone who expressed the very same sensation I have had where sheer physicality can take you to that same joy of the moment totally amazing tuned in place. It was great to connect and hear someone else express the sensation so clearly, so honestly and to really 'get' that feeling. Considering how the day could have gone, today was rather unexpectedly superb. One to be repeated!
