The fact that life in and of itself is a completely peaceful thing that merely requires alot of death carnage upheaval and disease.

The way that I wake in the morning to find that nothing has changed for the better or for the worse

They way that I see the things in people that make them the most beautiful people in the world

The power I have been given to heal the wounds of the soul and of the mind

The time when I really and truly realized fear for the first time in Twenty-five years (The birth and subsequent fear of loss of my son)

The fact that no matter how much my best friend grows up I will always be his true older brother

The season of fall, every, single, year...

The true feeling of calm and a true sense of belonging

In retrospec I have thought about all of these things and their beauty pales in comparison to the simplistic beauty and comfort that I find in Love

Seeing a friend fall in love for the first time and realizing that he won't mess it up, and he didn't.

Watching people grow and change into exactly what I knew they could.

Knowing sometimes, that life will flow away from you (but in the words of one of the best friends I have ever had) you will feel whole again (thanks Clare).

When watching a movie and for some reason (you know not why) it moves you, deep within and you just break.
