EMPTY SPACE
On a regular basis, do nothing. Drop your expectations,
Forget your worries and anxieties, and don't even think
Everyone alive must have some sleep each day. Just as your
Body needs the restful period that sleep provides, your mind
And spirit benefit from regular restful times as well.
When you read a good book, it is the spaces between the
Words that enable you to understand each one of those words.
In a musical composition, the silence between the notes is
Just as important as the sound of the instruments.
In whatever you are working to accomplish, be sure to put in
Some well-placed empty space. Pauses can be just as
Significant as the most eloquent words, and periods of
Unproductive rest can be just as useful as periods of
Strenuous, focused activity.
No, of course you wouldn't want to be lazy and inactive all
The time, yet you will benefit from balancing your diligent
Efforts with peaceful relaxation. The busy times make the
Restful times more enjoyable, and the restful times make the
Busy times more productive.
Just because you're not intensely engaged in focused
Accomplishment doesn't mean that you've stopped moving
Forward. Devote some time to relaxing and refreshing your
Spirit, and your efforts will become more effective than
Ever.
