Living the day as a force of nature.
We have heard that phrase so often but what does it mean…really.
It is living the zen moment.On the motorcycle, we were one. You can get a sense of the bike's personality. You communicate with each other. You trust each other. It is not called the iron horse for nothing. You know the feeling when you listen to a great singer or watch a great dancer.The singer is the song. The dancer is the dance. No duality. That word again.
It is the same with happiness. Happiness is being present in the moment. It is being a force of happiness and not waiting for something  to happen or someone to bring it to you. It is not the acquisition of some thing  that promises happiness in some strange advertisement.
After the ride, the song, the dance we join with friends and shared a meal. We hold hands and bow our heads to be grateful for this very moment. Nothing more. Nothing less.
It was a force of nature indeed.
