Gratitude

When I am depleted, and when there is nothing more to do,

I allow myself to embrace the stillness that is always present.

This is Peace.

The silence speaks. The silence replenishes.

I close my eyes and take a breath: I am here right now.

In the silence, I hear my voice, always present.

I take another breath, another step, and create the next moment with gratitude
