I wake to soft light that slips in my room~ warm, calm air from a far, kind place. I sit with my tea and watch the steam rise, a thin, pale thread that swirls, then fades. The day sings its tune~ cars, birds, wind, leaves~ each sound a small sign that life moves on. I think of the paths I have walked so far, the ones I left, the ones that held. No grand truth comes. No loud call rings. Just this: the world is made of small, bright things~ a cup, a breeze, a soft, clear note that lifts the heart for one brief beat and lets it glow.
