Breathing Out

This is something I wrote a number of years ago which seems to fit in with this time of change...


It’s that struggle between sitting back and enjoying the ride, and standing up and finding a new vehicle.

It’s about moving with the times, and getting stuck in a moment.

It’s when the ride starts to become less enjoyable, and when life suddenly gets more interesting.

It’s when the things that you’ve been doing become a challenge, and those that lie ahead come to you with more ease.

It’s when you start to move in a new direction, but never lose touch with what you’re leaving behind.

Content to never return, but determined never to forget.

Taking it all in but always remembering to breathe out.
