Moment

Moment. Pick one moment during which you felt most alive this year. Describe it in vivid detail (texture, smells, voices, noises, colors). (Author: Ali Edwards)

Floating in Lake Huron watching the sunset this summer at Wasaga Beach. The colours were gold and vivid orange, grey clouds, blue lake, green trees. The space was vast and silent. It was a perfect moment, and I felt as if my heart could explode with love.

Even thinking about it now makes me smile and feel buoyant, weightless. I felt such pride that I have been graced to live in a country of such astounding beauty and size. This was no small sunset.
