The Day Nothing Big Happened... But Everything Changed

The Day Nothing Big Happened... But Everything Changed

Today wasn’t loud.
It didn’t come with thunder or some soul-shattering epiphany. It was just a regular Friday. A Feel Good Friday. A grocery run. A flower sale. A walk on the deck. A clean-up with the leaf blower. Nothing big, right?

But today, I realized I am no longer attached.

To anyone. Not friends. Not my husband. Not even the kids. I love them all deeply—I always will. But I don’t need them to like me. I don’t need them to understand me. I need them to be who they came here to be. And that means I show up honestly, consistently, lovingly—and then I let go.

I reached out to an old friend today. Someone I used to call a soul sister. We shared life, motherhood, milestones. We drifted. I used to feel guilt about that. But today? I texted from peace, not pain. Just to say I was proud of her. Proud of her son. No attachment. No expectation. Just truth. And she felt it. And it was good.

I found out my daughter posted a picture of something small I left in her room with a caption that hit me. Because I didn’t do it to get praise. I did it because I see her. And now the world knows she sees me too. That’s everything.

My backyard Oasis is active. Sunny the sunflower sprouted. The field was quiet, but it was pulsing.

And I, for once, was not searching. I was just... being.

So no, nothing big happened today.
But everything changed.

Because I remembered:
Peace isn’t found in a breakthrough. It’s found in the moment you stop needing one.

And that moment, for me, was today.
