pausing on a snowy morning

 I see heavy flakes of snow falling
I hear the stillness of a holiday morning
I smell spiced tea
I touch my china mug and warm my hands
I taste cinnamon, orange and black tea
I know peace

Take time to savor the moment, just for a few breaths. Does it make your senses more acute? What surrounds you and touches your senses?

Moments like these are both ordinary and sacred. This is indeed the path of the Goddess.
