That’s my question of the day: What are you doing?
There are many ways to answer. Sometimes a short answer is easy – cleaning, working, etc. We can also be painfully honest with all the details, which most people really don’t want to hear, or go the other extreme and say – nothing.
Sometimes nothing is exactly what we need to do, but how do you do it? And, how do you do it well?
Maybe nothing could really mean that you’re …
recharging
resting
meditating
praying
thinking
slowing yourself down
All of these things are essential. When was the last time you took the time to do nothing? It can be very beneficial. I don’t want to brag or anything, but I’m getting better and better at doing nothing. I may start teaching classes on it.
What are you doing when you say you’re doing nothing?

/ October 5, 2019You need to talk to Barb Leedy about meditation (the art of doing nothing and thinking about nothing.) She has a lot to say about it. I’m not a good listener. I’d rather be doing nothing.

/ October 8, 2019This post was inspired by several close friends who are going through huge, even life-and-death situations. It has caused me to spend much time in prayer. It has made life seem anything but light at the moment. I know Barb Leedy is very accomplished at meditation.
