Moments of Quiet in the Chaos

We need moments of quiet

away from the noise of
everyday life,

to rest our senses,
to be outside,
to breathe with the trees,

to notice the way the light
dances quietly yet
magnificently
through the branches,

to hear the beating of our
own hearts,

to feel the pulse of the earth

renewing us,
fortifying us,

bringing us Home
again.
