“Within yourself is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself.”
~ Hermann Hesse, German/Swiss author, poet. (1877- 1962).
Amidst the bustle of this time of year, full of expectations ~ graduations ~ new or changing jobscapes ~ vacation planning ~ spring cleaning ~ simply being able to be outside without layers upon layers of clothing (much to my chagrin! Ha!) ~ there is, often, so Much ‘busy’ that a breather is wanted, or more importantly, needed.
Pause. Make the time. Take the time. Three minutes. Ten. Half-an-hour. Breathe. Balance. You will ultimately be glad you did.
(Encourage loved ones to do the same.)
Then …. Revel ~ Renewed. All those graduations, changing jobs, decluttering, spring cleaning, garden tilling, vacation planning ~ take on a joy and anticipation, and feel as light as those summer clothes. Guaranteed.
Find the sanctuary you hold within. Often.
Breathe. Balance. Revel. Renew.
Emerge.
And so it is.
