May Gratitude Prompt:

I am grateful for stillness. Seems like that is all we are lately...still. Still isn't something I do very well. My mind is always racing, my hands always doing. Lately I want to appreciate this opportunity to be still. To be quiet. To think. To create. To center. The stillness can seem like a prison, or we can embrace it and just let ourselves be still.

 Here is what Dina created this month:
