Deep Breaths

Time for rest. It has been a very busy week of work work and more work. Time to come home and bike or go for a quick run. The house is quiet and calm. No kids, no tv or radio. Just the hum of of the refrigerator and a passing car outside. Something to be said about quiet. Time to think, wonder and contemplate. Where do I want to be? Where am I going? Will I know when I arrive?

It is quiet now. But that is only temporary? That is a good thing. Life is meant be with someone, someones. Share the good and the bad, the ups and downs, and everything in between. Lean when your about to fall over. Rub a tiring head when the ache just doesn't seem to want to go away.

It is good to be able to rest while knowing someone is keeping watch. Comfort in knowing. Able to truly let go and know that it will be ok when the resting is done. Giving up a bit of responsibility and knowing that it is still there. Good feeling. Just knowing.

Being at peace with self and soul goes a very long way even if it is momentary. Savor the Gift.
