Yesterday, after sharing lunch and a thoughtful conversation, Vickie sent me an email saying, "Enjoy the beauty of the snowfall and peace and stillness that comes with the storm, isn't it interesting how peace and stillness come with the a storm, at least that is how I experience a snow storm."
As the snow is falling, Vickie experiences peace and stillness. So I would ask her, who are the friends of Stillness? Who are the friends of Peace? Would you like to say more?
Now, I practice being still and I notice that when I am still, there is nothing that I am attempting to fix or influence. Instead, I am free to observe things i.e., that I am full; that my dog is lying on the carpet nearby, to be with me; that my husband and son are talking calmly as they play a game on an iPhone upstairs .
There is value in observing what we are experiencing and in taking time to notice how we are feeling about it.
There is also value in noticing what we want and do not have and our feelings about that, as well.
