A one hour retreat

There is nothing as rejuvenating as a day or more on retreat. But today, one hour in a quiet part of the forest, by myself has been a retreat.

No sounds except the birds and movement of trees in the breeze.

No thoughts except the wonder of the beauty and life around me.

No distractions from just 'being'.

No need to rush off.

No goal.

Just me, 
in the forest, 
at peace and in peace.

Perfect.
