Don’t ask time to announce itself. It never does. It arrives the way snow settles on the hills before dawn, quietly, touching ridgelines, fields, forgotten paths as if testing whether we are ready to notice its presence.
Yet we step into it, not empty-handed.
By roads we’ve walked. By pauses we didn’t understand at the time.
By the patience borrowed from hills that have watched centuries pass without moving an inch. We like to think we’re fragile because we change.
But we are not the clay trembling in the hands of time.
We are the form that keeps learning itself. The body may wear, may crack like frozen soil in winter, yet something in us remains intact.
A breath that survives seasons.
So let the instant meet us present. Not desperate to become,
but willing to be shaped slowly.
Trusting that what grows unseen,
in shadow, in silence, is already learning how to step into light.
Nestled among the hills, time is not lost.
It is tightly held by the land, by layers of stone and silence, by paths that learned patience long before we learned how to hurry.
And if you stay with it, you’ll feel it.
The ground rising just enough to meet your feet.
