alone, with ourselves

What is the use of being busy just to be busy? I know it’s difficult for many people to slow down, to sit, relax and simply enjoy quiet time. However, alone, with ourselves, we begin to understand things about Life that were once puzzling. Quiet time can bring answers to questions that are being pondered. Quiet time allows us to feel comfortable with ourselves, and when we’re comfortable with ourselves we don’t go searching for things in all the wrong places. Once we get used to quiet time, we’ll find that those times we spend with ourselves have their own big rewards. Also, quiet time brings wonderful, new energy to us. And clarity, too. Life is meant to be savoured, to be meaningful, to be enjoyed and appreciated. When we’re anxious about anything, quiet time restores us, and gently nudges us to know Life differently.

  1. I do agree. Quiet time is the out-breath, space to move in, a blank canvas on which the creative mind can paint.
