Slowing Down and Doing Nothing

Go, go, go. There is this need to be constantly busy. Having free time is a luxury and not a priority. I’ve run with the pace of our society and it’s exhausting, especially with 4 small kids in tow. So a lot of days we do a lot of nothing. Of course, we have our routines, chores, work, and daily responsibilities, but when those are done, we are doing NOTHING.

It’s absolutely wonderful.

Although, it is a difficult transition to make. We’ve been conditioned to be constantly busy. So doing nothing feels like I’m wasting time. But doing nothing can regenerate my soul. Doing nothing with my family can lead to wonderful adventures, thought provoking conversations and intimate heart-felt relationships.

I like doing nothing, especially if I get to do nothing with these guys.
