The Bench in the Middle of Town
The town was already awake.
People hurried past, running toward meetings, buses, and expectations, while I carried an invisible weight called anxiety.
It whispered that something was wrong, even when everything looked perfectly ordinary.
I found an old bench beneath a tree and sat down.
Beside me was a small wooden box, worn by time.
Inside, someone had left a simple message:
“You have survived every difficult day before this one.”
I read it again.
And again.
The sound of birds slowly replaced the noise inside my mind.
For the first time today, I noticed the sky was full of drifting clouds, and the breeze carried the scent of summer.
Perhaps healing doesn’t arrive all at once.
Perhaps it comes half a breath at a time…
…until one day you look around and realize the world was never asking you to be perfect.
Only present.
With love, coffee, poetry, and stardust,
