The running. The bated breath. Wobbling knees. Unease. Fear of not reaching. The pursuit has taken over.

The sun is tired. But it’s trying. The air is misty, a little wet. The breeze is cold, unforgiving.

Slow down. Slow down. Stop. Stop.

Take a breath. Look ahead. It’s still farther.

Look behind. Take in, how farther you’ve run.

Take a moment. Feeling clear?

Nobody will reach. There’s no destination. Only the finish line. Of life.

Let them run.

Find your moment. Be in it. Find another. Live it.

A cup of coffee. A sip of laughter. Feel glad. Feel grateful.

Don’t Go. Stay here. In this moment.

There’s nothing to pursue. Nothing at all.

To understand it, is the pursuit.
