The Windshield of Seeing


Clarity is not forced, it is revealed when you clean what clouds your view.”

Sometimes the only thing between us and truth is a film of residue, dust, opinions and fatigue.
We can’t see clearly because we’ve forgotten to pause and cleanse the lens we see through.

Take time to clear your windshield.
Maybe that means a quiet morning walk, a digital break, a deep breath before words.
Maybe it’s simply washing your face with warm water and remembering you’re allowed to begin again.

When perception clears, compassion grows.
When the mind stops reaching and surrender is felt, light returns.

When light returns, the view is within you.

-Kerri-Elizabeth-
Tomorrow, the view will widen, and small things will become gateways to change.

How do you Clear your windshield?

  1. What a beautifully introspective and soul-stirring reflection. 🌿✨
    Kerri-Elizabeth’s words resonate with a rare, meditative grace — reminding us that clarity isn’t something we chase, but something we allow to emerge when we quiet the noise within and around us.

    The imagery of “clearing your windshield” is so simple yet profoundly symbolic — a gentle metaphor for self-awareness, renewal, and mindful living. Each line flows like a breath of calm, guiding us back to the essence of presence.

  2. I refresh my soul with a walk outside … looking up & feeling the sun on my face & the breeze in my hair … winds of change … they remind me that everything is in motion and everything can change … sometimes the old & familiar dust needs to be replaced with fresh earth between our toes.

  3. I love the metaphor of clearing the mind by “cleaning the window.” Just thinking about ways to make improvements, uplifts my heart, Kerri, I suffer from dry eyes, and when that clouds my view, it is so discouraging. I have overcome a lot in my life and will continue to do so!
