Breathe

When I look up, right up into the clouds, I feel small.

I feel the wonder of everything above me standing firm, strong. I feel the sway and push back of the branches. I watch as the wind catches a leaf ready to fall. It swirls, twists and turns and slowly settles in its new home on the ground.

In that moment, I forgot the noise in my head, the pressure of the ever growing list, the whispers of this and that from others. In that moment, there is just silence.

It's a fabulous thing to just stand, in the moment, and breathe. I am reminded to do that more often. I am reminded to remove things that don't really matter, things that aren't mine to worry over. I am reminded to enjoy and relax. Breathe baby, breathe! Try it.
