The light died in the low clouds. Falling snow drank in the dusk. Shrouded in silence, the branches wrapped me in their peace. When the boundaries were erased, once again the wonder: that *I* exist.

About This Quote

What I loved about the way this passage was written was that it was so simple yet so profound. This passage is about the beauty of being alive. It is the beauty of being you. The author of this passage wanted to capture the feeling of wonder that life brings.

The way she wrote this passage captures how life can bring you joy and sorrow at the same time. That life can be both beautiful and painful. However, that doesn’t mean that it has to be either one or the other; it means that each moment in your life should be treated as one moment in your life.

Each moment should be cherished like no other, because each moment could be the last. This passage reminds us that if we take each moment as an opportunity to be ourselves, then we will find peace after any hardship.
