CLEARING

​Did you ever notice how it feels when a darkened, cloudy sky slowly clears? When a raging storm passes? When turbulent winds settle? There is a calm. Nature is resting. You too can just rest. Sitting, breathing, observing. And after a while, you may find that your inner clouds and storms and winds are still there, but you have become more like the sky, open to observing their forming and passing.
 
In mindful presence,

You are the sky. Everything else―it’s just the weather.
