Quiet

Yesterday was a day that I needed. A day of rest-for-my-mind.

I didn't take the time to formulate my own thoughts ... to write ... to talk ... or communicate in any fashion. No creativity was required to get through the day.

I was not sad, blue in any capacity, lonely or depressed. I was happy.

Happy to be home. Happy to have the gift of a day.

Perhaps it was a waste of a day. I prefer to think of it as a much-needed day of nothingness.

The clutter of one's mind is exhausting. A day with a quiet mind is a gift. Savor the serenity of a peaceful mind whenever you have the opportunity.

The quieter you become, the more you can hear.”
~ Baba Ram Dass
