On exhilaration

 First, the complete unknown of the situation was exhilarating in ways I later came to appreciate. I came to a point where the day was the day, and yes it was new and yes there were different choices available. Yes, mistakes may occur.  It came on a moment when I reasoned about forfeiting to not now. It came on a moment when faith in the future was fanciful. And it abided at the edges of many starts and even some finish lines.

It caught me at the most when I tried to trap it. I felt the wildest wilderness when I came just to watch it as what it was.

The exhilaration was sustaining, as much as what some might call anxiety. If the anxiety about the universe can vibrate in a moment, then why not exhilaration?
