Drifting Off

Sweet child, though you may not think it, you are not alone. In the silent blanket of night there are signs to remind you of the love that surrounds you. The day retires and whispers moments into your memory that ripple throughout your being. 

As you wrestle your body down under the blankets and let the last surges of movement leave your being, you soften to the stillness that is to come. You remember the turning leaves popping against the blue afternoon sky. The warmth of the sun while you talked to your daughters at the playground. The way the dog reminds you he's always by your side. 

Release the heavy thoughts and wrap the warm feeling of love around you. There is peace in the air and the promise of love - unexpected after so many moments of disappointment. All that remains true is the feeling you are not alone. The gentle unseen forces are softly by your side.
