The more we unself by widening the aperture to let the world in, the less we suffer.*
Maria Popova
Are you breathing?
Are you here?
Did you just take a breath?
Are you about to take another?
Do you have a habit of regularly doing this?
Gift.
Gift.

I do not judge,
I seek no opinion,
I will remain open.
I am learning to be open
to the wonder of sunshine
and growing things.
I am realising
wonder does not ask me
to cover great distances.
It is
here and now,
And … oh my!
