When the elevator stopped, Ben felt a thrill surge through him. This was unexpected, but he welcomed it. A perfect opportunity to just *be*.

He began to breathe deeply, savoring the moment. He looked around the small space. His hands were clasped behind his back, he was standing at attention, like an eager student.

"Well," he announced, his voice filled with a subtle, yet very noticeable, joy. He turned to his co-worker, Sarah. "Let's be thankful to this elevator, and the time we have," he began.
