Sit quietly and do very little

Find some time to do very little

Perhaps read a book - try poetry because you can dip in and out more easily

Lost in a Book

I was once completely lost in a book

Honest – the story was really that good

They sent out a search party

But they couldn’t find me

They sent out the army and navy

But they couldn’t see me

They sent out sniffer dogs

But they couldn’t smell me

And they listened very carefully

But they just couldn’t hear me.

I finished the book

And came out of the story

They were so pleased

For now they had found me.

And why not tell us

Where you were going?

But stories are like that

There’s no way of knowing.

Or listen to some music - try classical music (you may recognise the theme in this piece)

And from Goodreads quotes:

“When you arise in the morning think of what

a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love ...”
