Perfect moments

Life affords us many perfect moments, though we rarely notice most of them. At 11:30 tonight, I was driving home, the windows down, the air cool but not cold, few streetlights on my route, and the CD player spun to a track (The Calling's "Wherever You Will Go") that in that particular moment hit me as perfectly as a new lover's first kiss.

Rock and roll, the night, driving: many perfect moments in my life have shared these elements.
