Sometimes it’s good to have no plans
Sit and let your thoughts play in the playground of your mind
No place to be
No appointments to keep
Nothing to cross off your to-do list
Just sit and stare
Or in my case, write
With with no agenda or plan
Write as a kind of meditation
With no goal in mind
These times are rare but essential
Our souls need maintenance too
If we fill up every hour of our day
We may burn out
Or feel really tired
We need time to focus on positive thoughts
To look for beauty in nature or art
Perhaps create something just because
Take a break from the rat-race of life and
Breathe deeply
And after a while, when we are ready
Tackle the things that need to be done
