Drinking in life

Another corker with positive inspiration to start our day from Tian Dayton.

Today I will drink. I will drink the wisdom alive in the day, in the tiny moments of pure beauty that I experience when I am still, the comfort and love available in the eyes of friends. I will not ask that happiness remain but will take pleasure in its fleeting nature; when it comes I will enjoy it fully: and when it disappears I will let it go, knowing that it will return. This world is meant for me to enjoy. As a child, I deeply understood this, but as I grew into an adult, I came to feel that the riches of this life were kept in a box – perhaps available to.others, perhaps available to me at a later date or maybe just to.look at the box and wonder.

I will not walk by happiness and beauty.

I am dying of thirst by the side of a fountain.
