The Simple Joy of Breathing…

It sounds overly simplistic, because aren’t we breathing all the time?

But no, we aren’t just breathing. We’re breathing and scrolling the phone. Or breathing and studying. Breathing and cleaning the house.

Every now and then, I like to just sit and breathe…

Nothing else.

Daily writing prompt
What’s a simple pleasure in life that brings you joy?

It’s a simple, free pleasure.

It calms my mind and refreshes my spirit. It’s a form of meditation and something that I find to be very human.

We weren’t meant to be running around 24/7, listening to music, or being entertained, or taking in horrible news from our smartphones, all of the time.

We were meant for more.

And sometimes that “more” is simply sitting, doing nothing, and…

💎

…just breathing.

Take care,
Dear Quiet
