It was 1979; I was in a human physiology lab, when a fellow student was electrocuted and flew about 10 feet, landing under a table. Another classmate and I started CPR, and before the EMT team arrived his heart started back up. I remember climbing out from underneath the table, and just sitting, wrapped in the moment. A life had stopped and started up again, and I was lost in the stillness that surrounds such experiences. Our body-mind-spirit existence requires “still life” moments to nurture and grow. Today, on Thanksgiving, take a still life moment, breathe, let go, be still, be grateful, and practice just being.
