I   firmly   believe
it's  the   reaching
for things we have
no business reaching
for, that makes the
human experience
so beautiful.

The  reach   for  the
sky   when   we've
no  means to touch
it.    Still  we  reach.

Sometimes life slaps
you in the face with
beauty,    screaming
at you to take notice.

Other times it whispers
in   your  ear  and  just
suggests that you stop,
look  up,  and  take    a
deep breath.
