As the sun began to lower in the sky, Sarah walked around the block and inhaled deeply the cool air. The meeting was almost over, and she felt a sense of calm. She had been nervous earlier, but now everything had been said.

She sat on a bench and watched the people walk by. The day was almost done, and she was happy to have had the opportunity to grow. There was nothing more she could do, so she just let go of all the tension and stress.

She turned her gaze to a group of children playing in the park. She smiled as she watched them, remembering her own childhood. She was okay, whatever the outcome. She would find her way.
