Standing Still

Sometimes, all I need is to stand still and take one deep breath.

Just long enough:: 

to allow the crispness of the air to awaken my soul 

to feel the sun on my face & hear the leaves dancing on the wind

to let the richness of my life soak in.

Sometimes, all I need is to stand still::

and remind myself that my life is rooted in possibility

changing as quickly as the seasons

and full beyond measure.

I invite you to stand still and take one deep breath in the midst of your busy life today?  

Falling Back In

I'm falling back in

without apology

or explanation

without promises 

or expectations

of for how long

or how often 

without feeling the need to begin again

or do any better

I'm

completely

imperfectly

falling back in.
