The Present Moment

I wrote this at Christmas time. Not sure why I didn’t post.

What am I experiencing right now? “The ‘din’ of voices. Sitting in a public house, listening to the low drone of human voices having soft conversations. The soprano section is upset about not finding street parking. The tenors are in love with whiskey and gossip. The Altos are deciding what to order. The bass section holds the beat, and just laughs. The contemporary Christmas music is the Metronome of the evening.

Omg. The garlic, warm chowder surrounds my head with its comforting aroma.

The entire Symphony of sounds is slowly raising as more elixir is consumed. By 6p, I won’t be able to hear myself. It is intoxicating to me.

Human interaction, connection, love, tolerance… they are all in the room with me. Right now.

And I notice. Right now.

Happy Easter
