When we are awake, life has a subtle yet abundant splendor in every moment.

It is like the sweet smell of roses.

This awesome sweetness of life is calming, soothing and relaxing.

It is the waterfall of light and love that permeates life.

It is the peace and love emanating from inside and out.

It is the heart connection with all of creation.

Every moment we are not aware this inherent gloriousness of life is overlooked and unrecognized. In contrast, life is dull and lifeless.

After awakening, we feel we are truly alive. Those occasional sweet moments that life had before pale in comparison to what is known in every moment.

This incredible sweetness of life is surely one of the Great Benefits of Awakening!
