Quietness of Dawn

I walk by this park often, in the very early mornings it is peaceful and quiet. Sometimes it's nice to sit on one of the benches and enjoy the quietness before the noise of the day starts. This morning was crisp contrasting with the warmth of the sun. My dogs were playing with my cat under the trees. Breathing deeply I sat in the moment, listening to the birds, feeling the warmth of the sun, and watching the happy playfulness in front of me. The cares and stressfulness of life were gone for a moment.

Our lives pull us in so many directions hitting the pause button and being in the moment can really help us recharge and face the challenges of life.
