Quiet Month

All of September has been a busy month.  And until today, October has been equally busy.  But the major storm of work has blown over a week ago and today, I struggle to rebuild a life of solace and quietude. 

It's not any easier now.  But I am beginning to find ways to.  A moment in a quiet corner with my cup of tea.  A long glance out across the open spaces.  A few minutes spent watching the birds singing outside my window.  A sniff of the fragrance of the Wrightia religiosa.

But we've got to find out own corner of peace and withdraw into it from time to time; lest we lose our minds and, more importantly, our spirit to live.
