I'd like to get away from earth awhile. And then come back to it and begin again.
-- Robert Frost

Do we think it's weak to need a break? Do we ignore the need to recharge our batteries? Responsibility for our own lives requires us to recognize the need to restore our energy. Maybe our former escape from the world was by using food, or drugs, or spending money, or being preoccupied with another person.

Now, since we are developing the ability to be with ourselves, we can take a break from the world and come back restored. This meditation time generates more energy for our lives. Recreation with friends, a walk, a movie, or a concert does the same. Taking responsibility to get away is a good cure for self-pity and exhaustion.

Today, I will be aware of my need to restore my energy.

Good Morning HJ, I just started my coffee and while it is perking checking out the forums. Thank You for this light slap in the face to help me wake up to where I used to be. I need to get back into my meditation routing every day. I kind of let that slip the past few weeks using the excuse I did not have time. I do take my short back road trips, stop at certain spots, especially if I see an old old barn and get out and walk. Just clear my head of cobwebs and try to listen to the sounds of nature.
You have a great week-end.. teddybear
