Too often we succumb in an effort to live right, be good citizens. We get swept away in the milieu of life without giving much thought to why it is that we are marching with the crowd while our heart skips a beat at every turn that is not of its own. And sometimes it is just that life has to be lived: a living to be earned, a family to be raised, responsibilities to be lived up to.

There comes a time however, when one can stop and drink in the stillness of the heart and get it beating again. Many take up their forgotten dreams when the children are grown and gone and reinvent a new life. The truly strong have done it all their life. Alas, I belong to the former.

One thing to remember is that there are also healthy and unhealthy habits that are that way regardless of others opinion, and making the right choices for yourself and your own health is very important (if you value a life beyond mere survival).

Thank you for this thoroughly inspiring post.
