Q is for Quiet

It is in the quiet and the stillness that we actually learn about ourselves...I decided to do a video for my piece today.  I didn't realise how long it would take but I persevere.  Hope you are blessed!

   

I am sharing some love with those who are also taking part in the challenge, it's not everyone whose blog starts with the letter Q, but a few of them for you to start with....

Q is for Quietness

Sometimes in the midst of everything mum goes quiet, there is a stillness about her as if she is listening to her own thoughts and seeing her own insights.  She is captivated by the moment and moves her head as if she has gained a revelation.

When I ask her what she was thinking and she looks at me with an amused look on her face, an expression that seems to be saying "there is so much for you to understand about life".  Those moments sometimes makes me sad because I imagine she is confused, it is something I can’t share with her and she can’t explain her thoughts, but at other times I realise that these moments of stillness can also be her way of gaining understanding and reflecting - bringing clarity, maybe it is an aha moment!
