big rain last night and now a gentle steady falling. cozy with coffee in bed. i have been feeling so good here - peaceful, centered, and content. fed, perhaps, by connections made over the previous week in Taupo. A far more solitary week here thus far, but easy - open interactions with other travelers here, without any of the social static i can create between me and other humans. in savasana the other day, i experienced one of those precious moments of truth, where some hackneyed cliche becomes a deep realization and takes on the power to transform one’s life. so simple, really - i just found myself asking “what if this were my last breath? am i present for it? am i in the state i would want to be in to shuffle off this mortal coil?”…and then the question just expanded and extrapolated to apply to every moment…what might it be like to really and truly live as if each moment might be your last? argh - it sounds like a hallmark card, i know, but in those moments it rang like a deep bell in my core.

It does NOT sound like a Hallmark card. I'm glad this trip is working.
