Inertia

Inertia

n. the yearning-forward, uninterrupted feeling of progression through the periods of anacrusis–crusis–metacrusis.

The living being is always in motion. One is not truly static until death. Our heartbeats, respiration, even the vibrations of electrical impulses to specific muscles are measurable at every moment of life. To be alive is to be in motion. To feel alive is to notice this motion. Inertia is neither forced or reserved. It is not random or creative. Somatic inertia is the yearning-toward, natural, free flowing, and uninterrupted feeling of progression through the periods of anacrusis–crusis–metacrusis.
