A moment in my day.
I feel like I should meditate more. I have seriously been considering this lately. Maybe have a few minutes to myself in the morning when I wake up instead of jumping right out of bead and rushing to get to work. I mean, don't get me wrong, I pray to God every day, and make sure to remember that I'm grateful for what I have. But I don't meditate.
A moment in my day so far.
I was walking into the living room to get to the kitchen to make some coffee this morning. It's about 8:30 and the sun is coming in through my eastern window, and it's quiet in my house. All I hear are the birds chirping, the wind blowing in the trees, maybe a plane flying over, and that's it. So peaceful. It's the things like this that make me so content with the world. I just relaxed. Now I'm sitting in the living room working, my music just quit playing, and I can hear the sounds of nature outside. What a miracle it is to be able to appreciate the little things.
When life gets busy, sometimes we forget the simplest things, like taking a moment to just breath and take in the beauty around us. Sometimes I forget that it's okay to be still. I forget to just stop and listen. But when I do remember, such as this morning, it's the best feeling in the world.
"Be still, and know that I am God." - Psalm 46:10
