Learning to breathe all over again

In the past, whenever I've found need for some kind of calm or peace I've always had to try and drown out the monotony with something exciting, some new sensation or stimulus.

At present I am working toward a more evolved end by seeking out the contentment of quiet.
Carol showed me a meditative pose which I believe I shall attempt to employ here for a little, hopefully accomplishing some semblance of inner quiet.

And I must tell myself, "there is more to see and to know".
I must not grow despondent.
I can be my worst undoing if I am not prudent, aware, present and prepared.
