SENTIENCE
A human being takes for granted
many words and expressions,
not really knowing their meaning.
Take the word “sentience”.
This word is rarely heard.
It is a word hard to pronounce.
It is pronounced SEN-chee-ans.
Sentience refers to the human process,
enabling a person to perceive and feel,
then becoming conscious and self-aware.
The process is indeed a precious miracle
for each conscious moment we possess.

CHERISHED FEELINGS
My eyes closed,
sitting in quietness,
relaxed in timelessness,
immersed in space
without boundaries,
sensing inner warmth,
comfort and contentment.
How wonderful it is being here.
