Spacing out………wow, had it already been, thirty minutes? It’d felt more like, just five! Translated…
“We’d worked hard all day long, don’t even have time for a breath, if we can just, space out, it would be nice………” as I’d made my way home from the dark that evening, my wife sighed.
I’d said bitterly, “Yeah, if we could do it like the competitors of the “spacing out contest” from awhile ago, in the eighty minutes, opening up our mouths, looking foolish, wouldn’t that be grand!”
like this? But you can do it in your own home…photo from online…
As she’d heard, she seemed to have gotten inspired for something. “Yeah, let’s just, stop worrying about lunch, and start this hour of staring into space, what do you say?”
And so, we’d, sat at our separate couches, thinking about nothing, attempted to, let out brains “space out”.
Wow, time actually passed too quickly, and, we’d, “waken up”, a little over an hour later!
“So, this short time of staring into space, doing nothing isn’t, so bad, is it?”, my wife asked me, grinning.
like this??? Photo from online…
“Not bad at all!”, I’d nodded in agreement, “let’s just, space out together, every now and then, to share this time of happiness together, shall we???”
Because, life gets too busy for all of us, and, we rarely have moments to ourselves, that was why, the thirty minutes of doing absolutely NOTHING together, and just, spacing out passed so very, quickly, and this would be an excellent exercise, to help us slow our paces down, because we don’t have to “travel” this fast all the time, and, the workdays are, hard enough already, so, cut yourselves a break, and start spacing out, you’ll find the benefits from this needed rest soon enough, I’m sure!
