…is the tune floating through my head late this afternoon. It’s been a busy day, teaching in the morning and working out in the afternoon. Now…it’s about 4pm and I’m the only one home. I have things to do, and the quiet time to do them. What do I want to do? Nothing. Nothing that has to do with thinking or figuring things out, that is.
In fact, I’m going to sit and read a book, a novel, not something that makes me think. I want to disappear in someone else’s world for awhile and think about their problems – those in which I have no responsibility to solve.
It’s good to take a life break once in awhile when the opportunity presents itself. A cup of tea, an apple, and few almonds complete the time-out. Below is poetry written by my yoga buddy. Today I’m like the fog – I just want to “idle motionless”. Thank you, Gaile, for sharing your beautiful words and photo.
What about you? When is the last time you had a quiet break from life? What did you do? Read? Walk? Did you enjoy your company?
And so, as another day goes by, those quiet times are so fleeting, we must grab them before they’re lost, and…I have written.
