Leave space

Life can be busy and loud.

If we fill each moment of time with action or each moment with noise, there isn’t room for stillness – or for possibility.

Multiple times today I enjoyed the peacefulness of quieting my thoughts and listening to whatever sounds were in my awareness – the birds, the rain, the frogs, the cars. As Eckhart Tolle teaches, not labelling the sounds as I heard them, but just coming present to them. 

I also left room in my schedule for possibility and got to enjoy some unexpected moments with both of my kids. Always a blessing.

Presence can come in when we slow down – when we make room.

It’s a beautiful feeling to be open and available to what is.
