The birds are chirping this morning.  The taxis still run with the same fervor and haste.  The sound of sirens reminds me there is uncertainty.  I hear the footsteps on the sidewalk of busy people whose day may be filled with animus or hospitality.  They approach the day with intention.  I feel calm as the world spins around me.  I am learning to focus on the chirping of the birds.  I sit with my intention before I flow into my day.
