Being Alive!

Blog City - Day 1002

Prompt:" We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures." - Thorton Wilder
Do you agree? What are your thoughts on this?

I have never really thought of it this way... but it makes sense. That feeling of aliveness comes from being filled with a sense of wonder... some people just exist, those that truly live, live with the expectation of life and all it has to offer. They live in the moment and in doing so they are conscious of what is around them... they can be truly grateful of all life has to offer. Some people are even able to be thankful for the hard times because they are strengthened by the experience. We really don't know how strong we are until we are tested. Just like that saying about the tea bag - only getting stronger if put in hot water.
