Reflection #3 I am Enough

Beginning Again

Reflection #3. I Am Enough

Each morning, I rise,
stretch,
and give thanks—

for breath,
for love,
for a body that still carries me.

I step away from the busy,
letting slowness
reclaim my hours.

Time with those who matter:
family,
friends,
neighbors.

Gratitude meets me
in quiet walks,
in spring’s soft light.

These are good days.
Not perfect—
but peaceful.

There is a quietness
that feels like truth.

Old roles fall away.
I no longer need
to prove,
to chase.

I seek something gentler—
a steady contentment
that remains
even when I waver.

There is only this moment—

and it is enough.

I am enough.
