Mid-Week Breather

There is nothing better than taking a mid-week break! We all need it. And, those who say “Not necessary”, are just plain old lying to themselves and others. Its like taking a breath of fresh air. A lot of us have forgotten to do that. It time to just kick your legs back (or in my case snuggle up on a chair) and start twiddling with your hair. I can’t tell you the nirvana you can attain with just this “simple” posture!  Oh, and the ideas.. they keep flowing like an unstoppable gossiping blonde! You really start to re-think the mundane and the ordinary existence you have been having until now.  

Sitting here amidst nature can make you dream. Dreams, not about getting richer or prettier. Dreams that make you smile. Simple dreams, about getting time out to play Sudoku, sit in a corner & relish a bottle of nutella, watch the re-runs of “How I met Your Mother”… Make plans! Plan a trip to granma’s place to cook your favorite meal, plan a schedule for re-arranging your knick-knacks (read: bangles and earrings), plan an outing with folks for lunch.. and so on. 

How often do we come around to taking a breather? Our lives are often governed by work! Do we really need to go down a lane where you already know the outcome? How long do we continue to work? Has anyone thought about what age they would like to retire? If that’s even possible, then we need to get our calendars out! 

What I would like to do now, at this every moment is to, NOT think. But, since that is not happening, (it’s very difficult to make a GIRL/WOMEN to stop thinking), it’s time to take a positive approach.  So, its time! It’s the moment to enjoy the fresh air! 

While you are reading this, I shall have long gotten up from my perch on the balcony seat and gone to take a swim (read: paddle) in the pool. Well, I can’t swim but do try and stop me!
