Beautiful poem reminding us to stop and enjoy this moment :) 


Oh do you have timeto lingerfor just a little whileout of your busy
and very important dayfor the goldfinchesthat have gatheredin a field of thistles
for a musical battle,to see who can singthe highest note,or the lowest,
or the most expressive of mirth,or the most tender?Their strong, blunt beaksdrink the air
as they strivemelodiouslynot for your sakeand not for mine
and not for the sake of winningbut for sheer delight and gratitude—believe us, they say,it is a serious thing
just to be aliveon this fresh morningin the broken world.I beg of you,
do not walk bywithout pausingto attend to thisrather ridiculous performance.
It could mean something.It could mean everything.It could be what Rilke meant, when he wrote:You must change your life.
