One beautiful sentence

A few bloggers I know are currently struggling with various illnesses. Having closely followed what author (and good blog friend) Patry Francis is going through with her own health battle, her current post really moved me, and this sentence in particular stood out. From "Unreasonable Happiness: The Existential Question of the Week":

"...Maybe I'd left the shallow, mundane world I usually occupy and fallen through a trap door to the place where being in love is quite simply our natural state."

Patry's existential question is "When was the last time you felt incredibly happy for no particular reason?" My not-so-existential question is "Have you recently found one beautifully written sentence which moves you?"

Wishing a Happy Mother's Day to all who celebrate it.
