We are made to touch one another

and to love one another

We are made to appreciate beauty

and to be in awe of nature

We are made to dance in the rain

and run through the forest

We are made to wade in creeks

and swim in currents

We are made to smell sweet smells

and to absorb goodness in the world

We are made to eat satisfying food

and to nourish our body and soul

We are made to love animals

and to care for them

We are made to read great books

and to lose ourselves in them

We are made to appreciate color

and reflect back beauty

We are made to feel emotions

revel in yours – they mean you’re alive

We are here to bare our souls and

to embrace as many feelings as possible

We are made to touch one another

and to love one another

Yes, this is life – live and love now – you may not have tomorrow.
