Unblocking Peace

Due to the on-again-off-again still-slowness of web connectivity I have found myself staring out the window a lot today while I wait for this or that site to load. In one of those moments when my browser was actually able to go somewhere in a timely manner I found a poetic thought at the Bird on the Moon blog. Whether it's due to a day off or the down time associated with waiting for other things to happen, a gaze out the window can be just the thing to refresh us and realign our thoughts to a place outside our own little annoyances. And it took only a tiny shift in attitude for me to switch from toe-tapping impatience to reflective observation. It's a much more peaceful, and much more productive, view.

Quote Of The Moment
I met in the street a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat worn, his cloak was out at the elbows, the water passed through his shoes, and the stars through his soul.
--Victor Hugo
