Beginning Again: Reflection #1: The Wonder Years

Reflection #2. The Wonder Years

In stillness, I find a tender peace—
the quiet hum of a life unfolding,
stable, calm, gently known.

And yet,
a flicker stirs within me—
a call to wander,
to stretch beyond the edges of comfort
into the luminous unknown.

Let me grow so rooted in presence
that patience becomes my guide,
trusting the rhythm of my days
as they bloom, slow and sure.

What joy awaits—
a door opening,
a window wide with wind and wonder.

So raise your heart:
to life!
to every shimmering maybe,
to the thrill of becoming.

Let us keep walking in awe,
for these—
yes, these are the wonder years.
