so this is what it sounds like to be listning for a moment to tune out chatter in my head and tune into the world instead and this is what it looks like with eyes open for a moment to notice whats outside of me to look around and really see and theres a strange kind of clarity a strange kind of harmony and i stop and breathe the life thats in the air so this is what it feels like to be here instead of getting there just look at all these people colliding for a moment ive trained myself to just ignore and shut the chaos out before but this is how it feels to be alive in new york city to stop and live inside my skin to breathe and let the madness in to let in the heat of all the bodies the vibration of the car to see all these different faces and the clues to who they are and theres gum on the seats and graffiti on the wall but its real and its here and im part of it all so this is what it feels like to be happy in the moment to realize its okay we all get stuck along the way and theres a strange kind of family a strange kind of harmony you can feel if youre open and aware and this is what it feels like to be here and happy in the moment and getting there getting there
