Sights and Sounds

After the workout today I tried to pay attention to the sounds around me and here's what I heard:

Wind blowing strong out of the North. The flagpole supports clanging on and off the flagpole. Students on the playground playing, howling and cackling with freedom. Planes starting their ascent from DFW airport into the sky, engines humming. My own breathing along with my slowly recovering heartbeat. 

Good to stop and pay attention for awhile.
