My Soul is tuned to the quietness, peace and stillness that Nature inspires.
Walk Slowly
It only takes a reminder to breathe,
a moment to be still, and just like that,
something in me settles, softens, makes
space for imperfection. The harsh voice
of judgment drops to a whisper and I
remember again that life isn’t a relay
race; that we will all cross the finish
line; that waking up to life is what we
were born for. As many times as I
forget, catch myself charging forward
without even knowing where I’m going,
that many times I can make the choice
to stop, to breathe, and be, and walk
slowly into the mystery.
~Danna Faulds
As long as we are alive, we are in motion. But in each moment, we can find peace in stillness.
BREATHE. LISTEN. ACT.
Now reread the poem. Soften your gaze and turn your attention inward. Give yourself a few moments to observe the facts of your life for which you are grateful. We are always perfect in our wholeness. Be mindful and explore this stillness.
