Hi Tess .. great picture .. and look at those eyes – saying hey I’m enjoying this .. this is my moment of deliciousness .. I love corn on the cob .. and am hoping ours will be ripe here in the UK fairly soon .. I remember many times years ago just eating fresh veg all the time .. masses of corn, artichokes .. broad beans, peas .. too mouth watering.

thanks – lovely sentiments be rapturously alive in freedom .. Hilary

The morning of the 4th found me in a Farmer’s Market sinking my teeth into a wonderfully, tree ripened peach….pure rapture… and that is what life is about!!
I hope you had a wonderful holiday Tess!

Hi Tess – Late to the party but here nonetheless, I am LOVING that quote and godonlyknows I try to experience aliveness daily! (Altho when I sit down at the dock, there are times I must take my pulse! haha)

Okay, don’t ask me why but I just about typed, “Merry Christmas”. Huh? Happy 4th, Tess.

That quote was great food for thought. Helped me consider how experience gets heavy when we look too hard for meaning. And then we sometimes feel disappointed, or we don’t know what to do with it when we do find it. One thing’s for sure; experience is experience in any manner of how it comes. As long as we’re here there is experience.

And damn that corn looks delicious!

Hi Tess – I love that picture and those words are so true – for me anyway. The simple joy of feeling and being alive is far more important than searching for meaning.

Belated 4th July wishes BTW – I have been without Internet access for a few days.

Hi Tess — I love the quote — life is something that it’s hard to figure out purely intellectually, and I think it’s easier to understand when we realize what we’re really seeking is an experience, or maybe a new relationship to the experience that’s already there.

I loved this quote. I loved it so much that I linked to it from my blog. We are hear to do great work and the only way to do this is to break outside of our comfort zone. We have to push ourselves to great heights. It’s why I love blogging so much. I’m forced to make my next article even better.

Amen to that. I guess it’s all about being in the moment. Alive and Well. A reason to feel alive.
