Still Alive?

from The Everyday Human · host Eastin DeVerna

February: On LifeFebruary 4Today's reflection was inspired by a quote from Joe Abercrombie's fantasy novel The Blade Itself.The dance with Death begins the moment you’re born.And despite the never-ending and creative ways the world could do you in, you're still alive. You're still here. So the next time you feel a little beat up by others, or worn down by the grind of modern life, please just take a moment—stop what you’re doing and mutter the words, “I am still alive.” Because while you’re still alive, you can do anything.Reflection title: Still Alive?Creative inspiration: Joe Abercrombie, The Blade ItselfReflection Question: I am still alive, so what will I do with this gift today?
