This "enough?" was truly the revelation for me in my situation. I have plenty to be grateful for. Missing a piece, yes, and for a long while I said, "Enough!" This isn't the way it's supposed to be. Then I found your definition. It can be. It may have to be. Sure, I've fallen out of my high saddle--failure is a human condition as much as love. It's painful to fall out, and then hitch the feet in the stirrups and climb back on, take a breath, let it out and nod with "Enough." arriving after the exhale.

In my experience, seeing beauty around you is a blessing and a curse. In those moments I defer to Tolle and how he says, "It's the power of the now" that makes it enough.

Beautiful descriptive writing, kasey. I was right there with you and the robin.
