There are three old trees by the pool, and the workers suggest cutting them down, saying the fallen leaves clog the filter too much and need daily cleaning.

We are all reluctant; those trees have stood by the water for many years and look quite nice.

Then let's just scoop out the leaves every day; I don't mind.

Every day during breaks, I walk barefoot to the water's edge with a net, slowly scooping out the leaves bit by bit.

Water is water, leaves are leaves; slowly, it feels quite peaceful and healing.

This small task feels like cleaning my own heart.
