Stillness

There are moments, late at night, when everything is still in my home.  I enjoy this quiet and peaceful time.  I am able to collect my thoughts and be prayerful.  However, there are occasions where I find myself thinking about my future.  Unfortunately, I think too much sometimes.

I tend to think past the rapidly approaching sacraments for my youngest and oldest child.  I zoom right past summer fun.  I fly past things like family vacation and other wonderful and joyous things that we plan to do in the near future. 

For me, the trip in my mind takes me so far in the future that I imagine myself in my home late at night with the stillness surrounding me...knowing my children are in their own homes embracing their own peaceful time.

May God's Peace be with all of you!
