Solitude

There are times in our lives when we all need some peace and quiet.  We do not gain that from driving aroud in a car with the music on.  We not gain it at home with a cell phone attached to our hip.  We not gain it taking a walk through a crowded park.
Regardless of how brief or extensive the seclusion may encompass, those moments of uninterrupted quiet time are necessary for the health of our body, mind and spirit.
I encourage everyone to take a few minutes each day for themselves.  Unplug the phone, turn off the TV and decompress from the hustle and bustle of modern life. The awareness that comes from those moments of bliss are intoxicating.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

"Like the cool, refreshing touch of an alpine lake kissing your fingertips, solitude can stimulate your senses into renewed revelations for the future." tc
