Ever watched a child discover his beating heart? Discovering his own rhythm.

It is one of the most surreal experiences of a child growing up. And perhaps the most underrated.

Think about it. He is discovering for the first time the life in him, not through his consciousness, nor through his pain or touch or smell or taste, rather purely intrinsic dance of nature that is keeping him alive.

The first conscious memory of me discovering my heartbeat is still fresh. I ran to my mother thinking this is something unusual  before realising the unending companionship is my own heart.
