“The mind can go in a thousand directions, but on this beautiful path, I walk in peace. With each step, the wind blows. With each step, a flower blooms.”
~ Thich Nhat Hanh
How can you be well, how can you know peace, if you are always busy? Always rushing?
If your days are blurring one into the other, if you are exhausted and defeated in spirit, or lost and no longer certain of your path, then stop!
Just for a moment, allow yourself to be still. Just for a moment be aware of your breathing, of the air on your skin, of the time of day, the temperature, the beat of your heart, the position of your body.
A moment or two of stillness refreshes everything.
In a moment of stillness rest comes. Peace comes. Answers come.
You can’t find that space and expansiveness when you rush, rush, rush.
You can’t find that comfort when you are so busy that your head is spinning.
Today, find a quiet moment. Allow yourself to enter into stillness.
Rest there.
And wait.
Stillness is always where the magic happens.

This blog by a beautiful woman in Australia, who I follow, seems to describe my life as I am learning to live it. I trust her words will speak to your heart and find a resting place there. Brenda
