Sitting idly is worth a try!


Sitting idly for some time, I think, will not be a waste of time if you make use of the time appropriately. The epithet 'idle' often has a negative connotation because  more often than not, it is used to describe the lazy ones out there. But of course, here I am not defending those indolent guys who don't pass over any opportunities to do away with their work ; I am not finding excuses for not working, either. Indeed, I am talking about how you can positively use the time when you sit, thinking of nothing serious, keeping away from your usual tedious work and doing nothing but mulling over your own thoughts!

In the hustle of life, we often miss ourselves, and we overlook the importance of spending time with ourselves, letting our own thoughts fall between the cracks. It's time we were introspective, paying heed to what our minds told us. This is not about merely chewing the cud, but rather, this is about how we can nurture our mindsets and thus our temperament and how we evolve our personalities, which we have to show ourselves first and society next.

It's a nice idea to listen to our inner voices. The time we spend introspecting is really the time we start knowing our self, and surely, it's the time one feels that one does live.

So, go find some time to sit idly and get to know how important you are to yourself!
