The past is gone, the future is not yet here, and if we do not go back to ourselves in the present moment, we cannot be in touch with life.

-Thich Nhat Hanh


When do you feel in touch with life the most?

The more present someone is, the more in touch they are with life.

when I am watching someone experience something for the first time...their wonder and delight with that moment.

When I am outdoors, alone, seeing the beauty and the glorious colors and sounds...birds, bees, butterflies, lightning bugs, deer, raccoons, the occasional fox... watching the wind blow across the water, making patterns and sparkling in either the moonlight or the sunlight.

This morning I watched the sunrise.

Light gradually filling my curtains.

The chirping of the birds becoming more insistent.

Salsa is such an rhythmic music and dance, I can see that it fills the whole room with energy one can almost touch 😃

When do you feel in touch with life the most?

When I connect with the breath.

I think I am more in touch with life when it's dark out, nighttime. Not a lot is going on at that time, so I don't have to think about as many responsibilities when the earth is about to sleep :)

@cafedaydreams I like nights when others sleep and I feel a creative freedom.

When I'm fully engaged in what I'm doing, but especially when I'm practicing yoga or am immersed in nature :) 🙏❤️

@serenePineapple7180 I agree yoga really helps me get in tune with the present moment.
