“Healing is not the end of pain; it is learning to breathe inside its rhythm.”
The lake was restless today. Each wave folded into another, never quite finished, never entirely new. The wind carried a softness that hinted at winter yet held autumn’s warmth like a secret.
This was the way of change, never abrupt, always layered. Emotion moved the same way, retreating, returning, reshaping what it touched. To walk with it required neither control or avoidance, only the willingness to listen.
Truth never shouts from the surface; it moves quietly beneath, guiding everything toward balance.

Tomorrow, the water will still, and in its calm another reflection will rise.

This is beautifully serene and deeply contemplative. 🌊✨ Your imagery of the lake as a mirror for emotion is exquisite — the way waves fold into each other, the wind carrying the subtle shift between seasons, mirrors the delicate ebb and flow of our inner lives. I love how you frame healing not as the absence of pain but as learning to move with it, to breathe in its rhythm; it feels profoundly compassionate and wise. The quiet guidance beneath the surface, the patience of reflection, resonates long after reading. Your words are a gentle invitation to mindfulness and self-compassion — truly a gift to the reader.

Your writing evokes so many emotions for me, Kerri. The first thought that came into my mind were the waves of grief. They flow over and through us – which sometimes leave us gasping for air. I’m looking forward to hearing more about the truths that emerge from the flowing water.
