"Still..."
I have never participated in Gypsy Mama's 5 minute Fridays before but this one spoke to me. Still is not something I do well. It is not something I do often. I hear of people who go on trips just to be quiet, reflective, still.. I am in awe of them, those brave few who can be alone with their thoughts for that long.
I am not sure if I could do it. Not for the sake of being alone. Which for those that know me that would a huge feat also. (I am rarely alone, by choice)
But to take carved out time to be still. I am more like my Grandma in that even in TV watching I prefer to have my hands making something.
Though some where I can feel it this desire to be still. To reflect. To draw strength for the silence.

It goes fast, doesn't it? Welcome to five minute friday... you have a beautiful space. So glad you linked up!
ReplyDeleteYou hit a point with women: even our grandmothers had to be working with their hands when they were still. A part of our society and upbringing. It is a struggle
ReplyDeleteI think it is just natural for us in this day and age to be busy. We all fight it - being still. But I am learning that it's pretty cool to be still. . .even though I don't do it enough.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! Love your site!
Good for you for doing it! I've been wanting to participate in this. I think I don't have time, but now that I think about it... 5 minutes. LOL! I need help. :o
ReplyDeletePS I think we women are simply creatures of efficiency! However, I am one who does greatly enjoy quiet time to reflect and think.
