Peace and quiet

Karen Leigh of Cape Town writes Some mornings, I wake with a sense of unease, not knowing where I belong. At this moment, coffee calls. Instead of lists and ‘what-ifs’, I situate myself on the stoep daybed with cats and dog, birds and trees, flowers and Home. I start settling into stillness, greenness and beauty. What is not important and what does not sustain, drops away in this nourishing moment. Thanks for your companionship. Thanks for being with me, as I give myself time to find joy. From this base, I can go about my day.
