Where My Pauses Are

i look for clarity in the little things.  i feel like there are little signs that i miss in my days.  things that might help me feel a bit more secure in the knowledge that i am on the right track.  i look for the light through a cloud. i imagine the bird landed right there on the tree for me to see. or maybe i'll glance up at the moon one night.  in those moments i try to pause, breathe, and listen.  i usually pause breathe listen for a whole 3 seconds, then i sigh and say huh.  maybe i just needed to pause and say huh.
