Today feels like the calm before the season — the stillness before everything begins to sparkle and rush. Lights are going up, lists are being written, and the air feels full of both excitement and hurry.
But this morning, I found a moment of quiet. Just a cup of coffee, soft light through the window, and a deep breath before the noise begins. It reminded me that even during the busiest times, peace is something we can create — not by escaping life, but by being fully in it, one breath at a time.
The days ahead will be full — laughter, plans, gatherings — but if we carry a little stillness with us, we won’t lose ourselves in the rush.
Today, before the season truly begins, take one quiet moment. Let it ground you. Let it remind you that peace isn’t found — it’s made.
