As I paused during my sunset hike this evening, I was amazed when I realized that there was NO WIND… we’ve had such windy days this Winter (the wind sounds like waves of ocean surf in the surrounding trees)! But this evening… a-b-s-o-l-u-t-e stillness…
As I silently stood motionless and simply observed, knee-deep in the snow surrounded by forest trees,… I realized I could hear chickadees, a nuthatch and grosbeaks far away on the other side of a field… and the clouds above me were so still… my senses expanded in this windless space… and I realized it reflected my inner serenity… my joy… my love of life…
It reminded me of “As above so below, as within so without.”… ♥
