Silence

I never wanted to be anything other than what I was. The Creator made me this way, simply because. There is no need to ask where or why? Who am I to stand and ask “What am I?” It is simple acceptance to know this is what I am. The chances of that changing are slim. I know longer wish for more or less. Content to know this is my life at it’s best. These are the only things that I need. To smile in the sunshine and breathe. There is a simple flow to life these days. A peace that wasn’t there always. Life no longer comes and goes as the breeze blows. But instead is steady like the river that flows. Perhaps it is simply that my life has slowed down. And only now can I appreciate silence as a sound. Sarah Comstock 10-03-2009
