This Is Enough

Letting life be what it is—and loving it as it is

I’ve started to notice a quiet theme running through my days:
This is enough.

Sometimes it catches me mid-step, almost whispering—
This. Notice. This is enough.

Like today, leaving Tai Chi.
I realized it’s become part of my life now—and I like it.

At one time, I might’ve asked:
Why am I doing this?
Is it to prove something?
To be more balanced?
More mindful?
To be good at it?

But now? I do it because I want to.
Because I enjoy it.
Not for an outcome.
Not for a reason.
Just because it feels good to do.

At one time, I might’ve thought it was boring.
But it’s not. It’s focused.
It’s fun.
And even though it’s slow, it’s enough.

That same feeling keeps showing up everywhere lately—
in the ordinary rhythms of my days:

Walking the dog.
Meditating.
Getting dressed for the day.
Tidying for fifteen minutes.
Making dinner.
Drinking tea.

There was a time I would’ve asked, to what end?
What am I getting out of this?
When will it change?

But now I know:
It doesn’t have to change.
It doesn’t have to lead somewhere.
It’s already giving me what I wanted—
a calm, steady life that feels like mine.

And that?
That is enough.
