When nothing changes, everything changes

nothing changed. everything changed.

a few words on THIS MOMENT

there’s a messiness in this moment

of transition

freedom feels so close 

yet still a year's worth of patience away.

how to find freedom amidst the mess?  in transition. 

within the exhale. of acceptance. of the mess.

not through the lie of order.

when my email inbox is organized. when my pre-mom jeans fit again. when my kids leave the house.
what a lie.

the freedom we seek is in this mess. this moment. this exhale. 

breathe out pressure to be somewhere else. do something else. be someone else. breathe in fresh air. this moment. this freedom.

i exhale trying to change what is. i open to the wonder of here and now.

nothing changed, everything changed.
