Feeling Quiet
Hearing Pachebel's Cannon in D
There have been three times in my life when I have been touched with utter clarity of being; when I declared myself an atheist, when I experienced an awakening which gave me serenity forever more, and when my husband first took my hand.
Nothing about my life shrieks of greatness or gives testimony to an unlimited legacy, but my relationship with Virgil fills all the empty spaces that could be instead filled with boredom, with insanity, with less than eccentricity.
Together we form what apart would be formless, plain, common, and absolutely dull. Love, I suspect, and lust even, but more an abiding friendship and an enduring partnership in life.
