My time alone
How do you spend your alone time?
.
Certainly, walking the dog, even gardening is therapeutic, satisfying, and gives you relief from pressures of the day
But if you always stick with the same routines, 'same-old stuff', you'll probably admit to finding yourself feeling a bit bored and uninspired
For some the answer is no as the 'same-old stuff' offers a kind of security
If you then rationalise that your garden or walk is the best activity in the world then you are well on your way
On your way that is to a perception that is not objective reality
So many do this arguing that they are right
That they are correct
Insisting that they do not need change
That they do not need any other stimulus
Life is just fine as it is
And you know this is true for some
Only though if their understanding of life is narrow and fear of the new is strong
If you see your life as about doing things for others
Then letting yourself feel newly curious and challenged by all the cool stuff out there is helpful
Who knows what you'll love?
What new activity, with what group, doing what hiking trail, going to that new film?
Prepare to be surprised
For new is what helps us stay young
Young is not about calendar years
Young is about being vital, being energised
Surprised by life, by nature
Our time alone is important
Many keep busy to avoid being alone
Try not to do this take time for yourself
We all need time alone
Make your alone time exciting
