Being alive isn't just breathing! Being alive is the ability to to feel! Profound sadness is life.Β Β Unimaginable loss wakes me like An alarm clock. When you enjoy The warmth of the sun on an early Spring day after a harsh winter or The cool air of the first frost you're Alive. Being alive is emotional not Indifferent. Tears are alive! Genuine compassion grows in those who live. Numbness means Death.
