The best things in life

Of late I acquired a knack for a simple new habit.In the morning with a cup of my morning coffee beside me I would pull a chair and sit at the porch enjoying the cool morning air.It is a time for relaxation and reflection and its so refreshing that you cant imagine it unless you try it.Its great what a few minutes of peace and quiet can do and the good thing is that you clear a lot of things mentally during those few minutes. It is good for the body and soul and it absolutely costs you nothing. We all need our breaks but sometimes we need to take a look at the way we take our breaks. Most people will associate a break with a get away to a distant country not realizing that after that they will feel more tired.When you travel you upset your whole rhythm eating different food , sleeping on strange beds and basically pushing yourself to the limits as one would not want to waste any time or opportunity when abroad.The end result is you need a holiday to recover from your holiday. Sitting quietly by yourself enjoying your cup of coffee and just letting your mind wander is something which many have not learned to appreciate>Feeling the cool morning breeze and sometimes watching the sun come out does wonders and gives you the breather to look forward to the day's activities.The body is relaxed and so is the mind and that is the time of the day when we can perhaps view things in proper perspective. I love this so much that I do the same thing after dinner but this time without the coffee.Again you enjoy the serenity of the night and you run through the day's events and whether you could have done things differently. This is therapy for the soul. A lot of things run through the head and the best part is you can come up with some fruitful thinking and it is also the time to wind down before bedtime. We are so busy with our daily routine that we forget to give ourselves these moments of peace and quiet which actually gives you so much and rest .No need to go for holidays to get this as its right there in front of you. You just to just make a little pause and enjoy this, one of the best things in life and you get it FREE !
