In a fast pace society that operates seven days a week and twenty-four hours, it seems harder for people to get that quiet relaxing time they are starving for without realizing it. At times something happens such as a physical disability or a mental health breakdown which causes all else that comsumes us to become trivial in comparison.
Growing up in Toronto, I always made an effort to leave the city at least once a week to relax in the country. This seems harder to do nowadays since urban extends further out, demolishing greenery and forcing the wildlife to relocate. However, if one can not seek refuge in the country for whatever reason, why not find it somewhere closer to you? Some find their oasis in their gardens, their balconies, and even their bathrooms. In their bathrooms, by candlelight and scented bath salts, one may soak away the days tension.
The point is that everyone needs to take that time to rest from the hurried life and adjoining stresses.
More people are forced to work longer hours and more days. Many have stressed full days or nights and do not even know they are experiencing this heightened level. However, stress will eventually breakdown on the body some how. How do you relax? Do you? Can you relax for a full day once a week? How about a few hours and escape at least once a month? What is important to you? How do you balance your life in an inbalanced environment?
Why not take the direction to easing some pressure off you and enjoy what life has to offer you? Why not take that break, to relax, reflect and enjoy once again? What do you think?
