Default Crazy World

As most of you know we live in a very crazy world, life in general for me is crazy. Sometimes I am so busy with being on the computer/internet, being on my cell phone, watching tv, etc. I was thinking today, whatever happen to just relaxing on a patio with a good book, having a picnic with my husband/family and dog, visiting friends that I haven't seen a while, or actually volenteering my time to a shelter or hospital. I think that it is so important to stop and take time for ourselves and get away from the "worldly things" and relax. Maybe just for an hour, a day, or even a week, to take in fresh air and get away from it all.

Boy that sure is easier said than done! But you're so right - and we all need to try and take an hour for ourselves each day to relax or meditate or whatever it takes to decompress... It's a hard thing that relaxing!

Everything you mentioned sounds wonderful! However, relaxing to me means taking time out for myself without having to do for others. Even without the husband and kids. (You know some me time!) My crazy world consist of always being on the to go and doing for someone other than myself. Not that I am complaining or anything I do love my crazy hectic life and I am most certain that my life is no different than the average wife/mom. I would just love to take a break from the everyday hustle and bustle of things. You know even to sit down and try to watch a program on tv is kinda crazy in my house. I always have someone wanting and needing me for something or another. Yup, I agree it's a hard thing that relaxing! But I am definitely gonna continue on giving it a go.
