Me Time and Space

After a long vacation with family and friends, I get back to my little apartment, to my shrine, to my solitude. At that moment, I understand the worth of my Me Time and Space. Vacations are invaluable to recharge our energy, family and friends keeps us in touch with our past, our roots and where we where and how far we have gone. But we  can't stay there all the time. 

Sometimes the noise of company, is our way to drown the nagging emptiness echo of our lives. It is more alluring then the void we face when we're alone. But to grow, we have to face this emptiness and make a difference. 

Progress must be the only fact we live for in life. To proceed and develop we must understand and appreciate Me time and space. Me time and space is the where and when you are by yourself without interference or disturbance. The time and space where you can face yourself, think about it. Evaluate, process and plan. 

We sometimes get lost and lose the sense of direction in our lives. We suddenly get confused. Not knowing how time passes, not sure where we are heading and why we are heading there, we lose focus and motivation. Routine is the only structured and known thing in our lives so we  stick to it aimlessly. We stick to the given routine because it was there, and effortlessly we gained a target, a road to trod, something to do, something to pass our time , our life. 

We are limited creatures, limited time and space. So losing our precious time and space to routine is a piteous thing. 

Whenever we are overwhelmed with aimless routine, whenever we derive our purpose in life from this routine, this is when we are wasting our lives. This is when we have to stop and go find our Me Time and Space. 

We have to hide and face ourselves. Stop this randomness and focus. We need to rejoice in our solitude, our quality time with ourselves where we can dream, think, visualize and plan. Spending time alone, facing the emptiness echo and creating our own original rhythm is the solution. Get out of the crowd, get to your solitude, appreciate yourself and stop losing your precious time and space,

Stop the crap and start afresh. It is never too late!

This is what woman has to say for today.
