Stillness is a quiet morning
It is watching the sunrise over the mountains
And warm rays of sun as it hits the skin
Stillness is a pond without ripples
It is the clear reflection of objects in the water
And the calmness of the breath
Stillness is a hummingbird resting on a nearby branch
It is the sweet bird song in the palm tree overhead
And the scent of the dry desert
Stillness is the absence of a breeze
It is a cloudless sky
And a cat sleeping under the canopy
Stillness is the ego reflecting the Soul
It is concentration and meditation
And the slow constant beat of the heart
Stillness is a pair of hands folded in prayer
It is communion with the Divine
It is Soul united with Spirit
May your day be filled with stillness
Namaste
