Embrace

the beauty

in 

the mundane,

while the

everyday

drudge

may feel

overwhelming

sometimes,

even often.

Go within

and find

the power to

step back,

to zoom out,

to be.

Pattern 

brings power

and 

what 

you do 

consistently

makes 

change.

The dripping

tap

eventually

cracks the basin.

It is simply

a matter 

of time,

of pushing

through.

Of realising

that more

is gained,

not through

giant leaps,

yet instead,

by the tiniest

of increments.

Seek out the 

one percent change and 

you will

succeed.

And remember

in the river

of this,

your one 

precious life,

you are

not the water,

rushing by,

you are the

stones, constant

and singing

as they are

sculpted

into

the perfect shape.
