Touched...

    When you have been deeply touched by another be it child, animal, nature, friend, family, stranger, art, music etc. there is a moment that holds you speechless and action less and you might say with a smile or tear "that was touching." This is when you have touched upon or become aware of your own essence, that is the same shared essence in everyone and everything. The moment of speechlessness and action less is the stillness that you are. Stay touched by each present moment, there may not be a smile or tear with each moment but you will be touched countless times and the world will be touched by you.
