My Special Moments

Have you ever had one of those days when you wanted nothing more than to be alone. Yes, much like Greta Garbo. I vant to be ALONE!
Maybe you are a mom and have a full time job or you are a single person putting in long hours and your family and friends just will not leave you alone. There are so many ways for folks to put demands on your time via cell phone, e-mail, twitter, texting… My, where can a gal go to be alone?
There are times when all of us need ME time — time to replenish our souls and bodies. Most of us are overworked and underpaid. The demands of our business life stresses us out more than it should. Then with the added pressure our family and friends place on us sometimes we just need a break.
So I declare a day out of the month as ME day. And this ME time is important. You may even say that ME time is sacred. Whether I check myself into a hotel, sink into a bubble bath with a favorite book or even rent a cozy cottage, I concentrate on whatever will fill up my soul. This also means whether it is to catch up on the sleep I may not get the rest of the month these are special times. When I can not get away from it all I can still relax at home by spending those quiet moments in prayer, meditation or listening to my favorite music. During those moments I choose not to answer e-mails or work related business until I feel recharged and ready to face the world again.
So in a nutshell we can nurture our personal privacy by taking some down time and indulging what will make us heal. This can be done through music, words, art or whatever lets you put the rest of the world at bay for a little while.
