It all got a bit much for me today and at some point in the afternoon I decided to bale. I needed to quit my plans for the day and escape. I quickly drove my small people and I, to the nearest piece of nature I could find.
Remove shoes, walk slowly, breath deeply, feel Gods good earth beneath my feet, squishing between my toes… breath deeply again, in and out. Listen to the children laugh, birds sing and the gentle lapping of the water on the shore.
It didn’t take long. Maybe five minutes and I felt a deep still calm wash over me. Everything is ok.
