A Moment Outdoors
Stepping outside into the quiet backyard, Jamie was greeted by the night’s symphony—crickets chirping, leaves rustling in a soft breeze, and the low hum of distant traffic. The cool night air kissed his face, bringing a clarity he hadn’t felt in weeks.
He sat down on the wooden steps and let memories flood in—grilling burgers on sunny afternoons, playing catch with Emily, sipping iced tea with Sarah. The backyard, once just a space, now felt sacred. In its stillness, it offered something the battlefield never could: peace without tension.
