There was so much to do and so much to prepare for. While taking a break from setting up the classroom, I found a chapel with a Cretan Labryinth near by. The chapel had gorgeous stained glass windows and beautiful carvings. I walked to it daily and took time to pause in the quiet.
Walking the labryinth was more time for pause. I enjoyed the breeze, the sounds of the birds and the gorgeous green surroundings. Quebec is beautiful.
Returning home, I felt so grateful for those times to pause in the day. I know I write about this a lot but pause is as important as pursuit. Sometimes, it doesn't matter how much work there is to be done in a day, how much may be left undone at the end of the day and how busy life gets........pause. Breathe. Just be here now. The pointed pen especially knows when you are anxious, rushed, or stressed. The breaks and the time for pause are necessary. Hope you are enjoying a beautiful July so far and are flourishing wherever you are.
