Doctors won’t tell you this. It does not show up on your blood test. But we are all deficient in appreciation. We don’t know the value of the things we have been given. We don’t understand the beauty of this breath. I mean, once you understand the beauty of this breath, how can you not appreciate it? Then the tears are not always of sorrow. Sometimes they are of joy. And you begin to understand the difference between the two. It is not the emotion of all the darkness, but it is the first rays of light emanating from the heart. A relief. It is the sense of relief the travelers feel when they see their destination in front of them.
