A Small Pause: Sitting With the Quiet

Before the weekend begins,

before the to-do lists rearrange themselves in your mind,

pause for a moment.

Not to plan.

Not to fix.

Just to notice.

Notice the quiet beneath the noise.

The steady rhythm of your breath.

The simple fact that you are here.

You don’t need to fill this space with meaning.

You don’t need to make sense of anything.

Let the quiet hold you for a moment longer than feels comfortable.

Sometimes, that’s where clarity begins.

If this reflection resonated, consider sharing it with someone who might enjoy a small pause today. You might also enjoy Rocky Moments: Embracing Life's Challenges.
