“It only takes a reminder to breathe, a moment to be still, and just like that,
something in me settles, softens, makes
space for imperfection.
The harsh voice of judgement drops to a whisper and I
remember again
that life isn’t a relay race; that we all will cross the finish line;
that waking up to life is what we

were born for.

As many times as I forget,
to catch myself
charging forward without even knowing where I am going,
that many times
I can make the choice
to stop,
to breathe, and be,
and walk
slowly in the mystery.” 

(Danna Faulds, “Walk Slowly”)
