Today I had this over-powering desire to live. To just... live.

I wanted to turn the radio up as loud as it can go, to drive with the windows down and let my hair get crazy tangled in the wind.

I wanted to lay outside and look at the leaves grow. They are so high up there in that tree. So bright, so green. Have you seen?

I wanted to dance. But I can't, you see. Born with two left feet, you see? Oh, but I wanted to. To dance.

I wanted to watch the sunset. To drink in the colors that covered the sky.

I wanted to look at the stars and hear them whisper. Telling the stories of ages gone by.

It's funny that when life happens, we forget to live.

Today, I wanted to feel something.

Something more than just the tick of the clock. More than the routine, the drawl, the crawl, the fast forward of this thing we call Life.

Today, I wanted to feel alive.

Today, I wanted to live.
