A stoppage of time.

I have now. Today. Every day. I haven’t missed a single day in my life. But sometimes I’m not conscious of now. Especially when I sleep. But other times, I’m simply going through motions. Virtually unaware. But then I remind myself. I’m actually a real being. A presence. Aware that I’m living. And best of all. That I’m in love. With someone. With life. And I feel the pulse beat. Savoring every tick. Grasping the moment. Capturing it all. Like a snapshot. A stoppage of time. –Jim Broede
