I didn’t watch tv last evening,
Didn’t stay up for the counts.
Deleted FB and Insta icons…
Repeating the mantra: “May the outcome be for the highest good of humanity.”
Woke up to the results in my inbox,
“Trump won the election mainly due to White males with no college education…”
Shock. Disbelief.
Time stands still as the snow comes down outdoors. Quiet.
… and then the quiet is interrupted by pings, dings, rings and chimes.
Wisdom and support are shared between friends and family.
Looking out my livingroom window,
I find solace in Mother Nature: Snow. Birds. Leaves. Flowers.
The balance of life in nature holds my hand and heart.
… and takes me home to my breath.
Breathing in, I am grounded,
Breathing out, I am safe.
Breathing in, nature smiles,
Breathing out, she reminds me,
“This, too, shall pass.”
Seems so simple to just breathe in and out.
Seeking solace in times like these.
… it will take practice to find balance the day after November 5, 2024.
