The Quest of Rest

a small creative piece

Lately, when my fingers ache from filling in scrolls, I take myself down to the garden and sit in the sun feeling blessed that it's summer. I watch the little birds hop from branches in my pear tree, and follow the trail of the white butterflies as they fulfil their daily quest for nectar. Sometimes I'm greeted by a wandering feline asking for directions. I sit. I breathe. And then I'm ready to go back inside and pick up the quill again.

No matter what quest you're fulfilling, remember to pause and sit. Even what we want to do can be exhausting, so never neglect your need to rest ☀️
