When was the last time you felt ALIVE? It's a feeling almost indescribable - architect Christopher Alexander called it "the quality without a name." And yet, though neither of us can name it, it's universally understood. It's a feeling of intense rightness, a moment that is perfect without anything added or taken away. It's a feeling of resonance, like the moment strikes a note you've been listening for all your life. It's a feeling of calmness, of balance. That "all is well, and all will be well." It is completing and soothing in its wholeness. It's freedom with an absence of striving. It is a moment that's not trying to be any other moment. It feels timeless in the truth of it, like a gift that stands outside of trend or measurement. Awe, wonder and possibility are all available to you. You know - ALIVE
