Stillness

Leaving room for stillness takes effort. To allow for rest and quiet would seem to be a fairly easy thing to do. It should require little effort to rest, little noise to be quiet. That is not often the case. These days it seems we need to carve out quiet from our calendar and then apologize for it when we have it...or listen to the noise in our heads that makes us feel guilty for taking time to be still.

What if we were simply still?

  1. I am simply still often. It's a necessity for me, considering all of the noise I enjoy most of the time...inside and outside my head. :-)

  2. It is amazing how difficult it is to take time to just be. I always say I will make time, but never do. Seems like such an easy goal, but is truly hard to do.
