A Lighter Step

When I relaxed the tension in my eyes,
the sharp outlines of my bias faded away.
When I let go of the weight in my shoulders,
I felt free from the pressure of others’ expectations.
My life, once filled to the brim,
began to shift toward simplicity—
and with that, my steps grew lighter.
A little space, a little rest,
changed everything.
There are days when even walking feels heavy.
Sitting, lying down—none of it feels easy.
That’s when life is telling you to pause.
To let go.
To clear your mind and lighten your step.
Even the smallest breath of space
can bring energy back into your day.
And that’s how life begins to change.
