Received the Visual Intervention in 2012 – Smith Lake, Virginia

Right at the break of dawn, the world's in no rush. The water's holding still like glass, and there's a mist hanging over it, all and mysterious-like. It's like nature's taken a deep breath and just paused, waiting for the sun to catch up. You can almost hear it, can't you? The silence?

Now, this is something else. It's like the lake's saying, “Slow down, friend. Take a look around. What's the big hurry?” It's teaching us, right? Showing us there's a whole other way to be. Not always running from one thing to the next, but just… being. Sitting with the quiet, feeling the cool air on your face, and just… breathing.

People are finding out that this sort of thing—being mindful, staying in the moment—it's like a secret superpower. It's like we're all out there, paddling hard as we can, and then we realize we don't always have to. Sometimes, you let the boat float for a bit, and that's when you really start to see things clear.

And yeah, life's going to keep on. It's full of noise and fuss, bills to pay, places to be. But places like this—they remind us we've got choices. We can find spots of calm, bits of quiet in all that noise. It could be getting your hands in the dirt, planting something, or just watching the clouds and thinking about nothing at all. Even in the city, you can find your little patch of .

It's kind of like we're all in this together, you know? We can share that peace with each other. A kind word, a little patience, it goes a long way. It makes the rough waters smooth for all of us.

So next time you're feeling the world spinning too fast, think about this . Remember that mist, that still water, and take a minute to find your own quiet place. It's there, inside you. Just gotta take the time to look.
