I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

Conscious clarity defines interpretation, enthusiastic
engagement with your surroundings modifies the obvious.
Reflections of prior knowledge clutter immediate impression
of the world surrounding you now. Look deeper.
Place yourself beyond all that appears to be, physically
even philosophically. Overlook the momentary minutiae.
Greater meaning manifests itself within nature’s solace.
Consolation is subtly internal in the infinite external.

Vision obscured by common occurrence, perhaps appearing disparate today, yet always hope for an alternate perspective. Hardly a coincidence, isolation may principally compound its influence or allow you to seek a different viewpoint. Take notice, observation provides clarity.

There.
Sit, quietly and comfortably, where you are.
Acknowledge the gradient nature of progress as it happens with the shades of past days inflecting a presence we don’t often respect.
Take your time.
Feel. Where you are.
At the intersection of faith and contentment you will gradually find your way.
Think about it.
Set your intentions.
Now rise, slowly and purposefully.
Look up, not only with your eyes but with your neck engaged in mindful movement.
Release the stiffness in your bones, allow energy to radiate from the spaces between.
Let the weight on your shoulders dissipate as you allow the arms to simply hang as if they are not even there.
Inhale. Exhale.
Each breath is as important as the next.
Breathe.
Exercise thankfulness, first and foremost to your self and the effort you have just expended.
Hold that thought.
You have already begun to experience the day.
Gratitude will follow with your next steps.
Share that feeling.
Enjoy this day.
