kim Sun is powerful. It's strength amazingly soothing and calming. The warm sun penetrating my skin feels like cleansing to my soul. My body relaxes as I enjoy the simple pleasure . When I am a little too hot I walk into the water to rest and cool down. It feels like the coldest drink quenching my thirst instantly. My mind begins to slow down as my body relaxes.One day of this is fantastic , but after 7 days I feel so so so settled. How could a little holiday away be so soothing , calming and powerful?
I am wondering again how I ended up in the place I was before I went away. Busy, busy, busy and if I I am honest basically spinning my wheels.I can see more clearly how inefficient I have been while trying to accomplish too many things in too short a period of time. I have learned that slowing down is more efficient. Kind of like vaccuming . If you do it too quickly you miss all the dirt , but if you go slower you pick up more dirt and do a better job.So I think I will try to slow everything down a little and see what happens when I move the furniture out of the way and vaccum my soul.

What a wonderful post. So many resonant themes. The healing sun, the power of slowness and moderation, stepping outside our routines to gain perspective. There are a number of older postings that similarly speak to these ideas. I need to create a "Related Posts" sidebar. For now, we can use the search box in the upper right corner. e.g. Search on 'sun' and see what you get.
