The scent of a loved one, a photograph from a happy time, a song that evokes a specific feeling. The past whispers to us, reminding us of who we are and where we’ve been.

The cascade of water is a sight and sound to behold. The water dances off the rocks and flies through the air. Falling back into itself and rushing on. You’ve come across a beautiful waterfall and have all the time to appreciate it. The light, the sound, the energy, it’s all here. Now.

The strength of your muscles, the rhythm of your heartbeat, the resilience of your physical form. Your body is a vessel of life, capable of incredible things.

The glossy shine at the ends of your fingertips brings a smile to your face again. Not a distraction per se, but a happy thought when you see it. The fact you have them done shows you’re doing well these days. You’re taking care of you. It makes you feel good.

The vastness of space, the mystery of galaxies, the endless expanse of the cosmos. Contemplating the universe is a humbling and awe-inspiring experience.
