One morning in the week I had a brief interval of absolute calm.
For the shortest period I was focused on the absolute present and everything else; the plans for the day, the niggles, concerns and irritations simply faded away. It was two minutes of simply delightful calm.
It happened shortly before I started work. I wandered upstairs to brush my teeth and, after applying toothpaste to the brush and hitting the start button, I wandered to the bedroom window and looked out at the flowering cherry that sits just outside.
A flash of movement caught my eye and I spend the next two minutes watching a pair of blue tits flit amongst the branches collecting insects, presumably for their hatchlings.
It was two minutes of my life where nothing intruded to disturb the moment.
I appreciate that this might seem a bit Zen, but I wish more of my day was like this.
