Book cover for This Is Water

It’s easy to write this off as platitude, and I didn’t really get the raving about this short piece until the last lines. Then, I got chills. I think it took until this point in my life for the value of meaning-making in every day life to really set in. Probably, I’ll fall backwards. But, that doesn’t make it any less valuable. It’s about taking into account something BEYOND myself and to stop living on auto-pilot. It’s beautiful.
