Let’s pretend for a spell that it’s okay to be idle. Let’s take this as an opportunity for a new way of living. With every thought that comes, let it float away. With every desire to speak, let the moment pass. Every movement can be forfeited. Feel the freedom of doing nothing, saying nothing, thinking nothing, for even a few moments. Peace does come. Peace at last. ~ Casey, Karen. Daily Meditations for Practicing the Course (Hazelden Meditations) . Hazelden Publishing. Kindle Edition.
At my house the “Shelter in Place”
means being idle for a while
is more than possible.
For others with a variety of ages
and interests represented “in place”
it may mean being idle and undisturbed
is a rarity and almost beyond imagination.
But if that’s the case how much more important
but let’s take this as an opportunity
for a new way of living.
An opportunity to let thoughts drift away.
Feel the freedom of doing nothing,
saying nothing, thinking nothing,
for even a few moments.
Peace does come. Peace at last.
Be still and know!
