Day 26 – Back Deck Bench

Today, it felt like there was nothing left. My feet were hurting. I was so tired, my arms were heavy. I’m in pain, constant, wearying pain. But then I looked at what was in front of me. I opened up my senses and actually looked at the beautiful sunset in front of me. The first star was coming out, and the clouds were dark against a fading sky. As I just sat here and breathed, I instantly felt better. Everything felt better. And the softness and the sweetness that almost hurts in my chest, it was there. I’m learning that it’s always here, just waiting for me to notice it.
