daydreamer

i was wondering today, how long it is since my chidlren had a chance to really just sit and do nothing and daydream - life is so busy for them at school - there are so many pressures and stresses - it is difficult to feel like there are any moments when nothing is expected of you - this is one of my favourite relations listening to the grown ups and enjoying a wee daydream - i wish there was more time for that !

We tend to fill our lives with action. We do not learn the skills to just stop.

i wonder how we can learn those kinds of skills ? - i agree they are really important, but part of nurturing those skills involves dealing more effectively with the 'crush and dizziness' of life - i wonder how i do that, especially when i sometimes feel completely under-resourced and too drained to really help anyone else with it ?
