What is it about solo time?
Something I've always needed
and wanted to understand.
We have these pockets of time
and space . . . time with the
spouse, the family, friends . . .
Then why is it that we often
forget to allot time for being
alone?!
I've found over the years that
alone time can turn into catch
up time if we're not careful.
"Oh, I'll just wash a few dishes
and then I'll sit by the fire." Or,
"I didn't realize how much I
needed to vacuum under the
dining room table."
It's a rare ability to simply sit
quietly doing naught! There's
a need to grab a book or a
crossword puzzle, hand work
of some kind. It's almost as if
our sense of self is attacked
in the quiet.
Alone time is important! Quiet
time is necessary!! Sitting still
is paramount!!! And, if we've
mislaid this monumental value,
'tis high time we institute it in
our lives.
