A Gentle Wave

Everything was quiet in the room. I felt a soft warmth spread all the way to my toes, and my raised hand gave a gentle wiggle all on its own. Curious, I took one soft step forward across the carpet and tapped the edge of the blue shelf beside me. The little toy truck resting there rolled slightly forward with a tiny squeak. I let out a soft, warm chuckle, happy to stand right here and feel the stillness around me.
