I was thinking, what really gives me kicks. I get high on life. But then I thought, what is the most satisfying thing I could do or hear. Is it the crunch of dead twigs and leaves under your feet? Or wiping the sleep out your eye? Maybe it's the echo of your bike as you ride through a tunnel. Or simply the crunch or pepper being crushed as you twist the shaker top. They all do it for me. It gives you that slight feeling of satisfaction. The feeling of being free. Free will. Bodily atonomy. Freedom is one of the things I have to be thankful about today. Yesterday I was trapped inside my body. Today I feel as free as a feather. But, I am also thankful for the tiny things that make my day. All the small things that make you smile as you walk through the street from a busker playing your favorite tune o his guitar to an old woman feeding pigeons. Such kind hands. I hope that someday I will be able to return these free gifts. I know one day I will.
