You wait, a storm’s chaos beyond your night window. The long summer, an overly-warm fall, cling fiercely. A thunderstorm in October.
It feels like forever, as if there will always be more. Steamy humidity. Suffocating. Like moving through warm water that never cools. You long for the fierceness to break, for the dark storm, this weary season, to pass.
You do not expect such glory.
Morning rises. Trees rain drops of watery sunlight. Leaves chant with each sway of limb and breeze. It’s safe. Come out. Play. You inhale, and you know.
It’s because of the storm, this beauty.
Trust the long nights. The chaos.
Morning magic comes in its own time.
Embrace the rain beyond the window, the storm within. When change is ready for you, step into that glorious opening. Live. And begin the wait again.
