Rawness of Life.

There is a somewhat elusive feeling that I  sometimes get the opportunity to experience, especially during my travels to places that are engrained with rich cultures and harmony with nature; an experience that I am only starting to scratch the surface in understanding. It is an experience that fills my spirit with fire -  an intense excitement to be a part of the present moment, the nostalgic curiosity of Life from my childhood, seeing magnificence that I could not explain unfold in front of me, a blissful assurance that Beauty is in fact an inherent quality of the substrate that is our existence.  It is an experience that I call the Rawness of Life.
