Keeping Our Heads in the Clouds




Deep Reflection & Relaxation
 

Keeping our heads in the clouds is often the best place for it to be in order for us to move away from our daily stresses and reconnect to the majesty of eternal nature that is far greater than our present condition.

We've all had instances where we've put aside a difficult work assignment, a paper we were writing or a life challenge we were grappling with. To get away from it all we may chose to take a walk to clear our heads, have a lunch break with friends, spend a weekend in the country to get out of the noisy city or take a trip to the city to move away from the quiet of the country.  Often when we return we find we have new solutions to our challenges.   Sometimes we may find we are able to sail through prior obstacles with an ease that we would have thought unimaginable prior to our taking a break from what we believed was an impossible situation.

Let's take time each day to silence ourselves and relax, to listen to good music, to read inspirational words or  meditate. Then come back to our life's challenges with a renewed energy.                              .

Spending time daily with our heads in the clouds may help us live a more peaceful and productive life here on earth.


Peace & Blessings

  1. Clouds work for some, but I find that being close to a body of water, be it a stream, river, lake, or ocean provides me with the relaxation I need to rejuvenate.

    1. Ah! But always remember, BlogginBill that the water that relaxes and rejuvenates you so much comes from clouds. -- Still, water scenes are on the way.

  2. I remember as a youth gazing up at the sky while watching the clouds rearrange themselves into fun shapes and sizes. I loved flying kites as a child on Fire Island. I imagined the kites could actually touch the clouds. Today I will remember to look up at the sky and dream about those times long ago on Fire Island.

    1. Keep dreamin', Sis. And by keeping your head in the clouds for a few moments each day I'm sure you'll touch heaven. Much Love.

  3. What a lovely photo/meditation. Watching clouds, especially at sunrise, is one of my favorite indulgences. Taking time out to read your blog is another one. :)
