Quiet Thursday at Home

Today was a sick day. I had a cold and felt stuffed up in the head. I was home today where it was very quiet. My kitty Jessica was home with me but she was just in and out today. She rested on the chair, couch and on the floor in the sunshine. It was so peaceful and quiet today. Nice to have some time to slow down and think...stop and rest and get well. Quiet allows for time to think and process what is happening in my life. Things happen so fast in our world that we need time to process what has happened. We don't do this enough. We don't stop and take time to understand what has happened and why it has happened.

For instance: The Ferndale Coach was found dead, shot in the head possibly by a husband of women who he was having an affair with. Tragic. Have we stopped to think about this. No, and if we have we will think only for a while ( a few minutes) and then move on, blocking out what our true feelings are about this tragedy.

What has happened and why? We need time to stop and think, process and reflect... learn from others and take life lessons to heart...not just move on and forget. This is why our nation is in trouble.
