I Sat with an Egret
Tuesday, August 22nd, 2017
I sat with an egret for a moment – just a few moments.
I watched as it sat still letting the breeze blow its feathers.
Slowly the egret reached down into the water and snatched a fish.
I watched as the egret sauntered lifting each black foot up and out of the water without a sound.
Its slow steady movement was meditation in action.
Each step reminded me to be present.
I sat with an egret and was reminded to be still.
I watched an egret for a moment and realized that’s all we ever have – this moment.
