Idleness is absolutely necessary for creativity.
ReplyDeleteThere is no such thing to me, as wasted time. Just being still and doing nothing, it's heaven and productive at the same time. Two thumbs up.
ReplyDeleteIt is one of those in which things I excel. It's good to know it is necessary.
ReplyDeleteEveryone needs a little time to themselves to relax.
ReplyDeleteI firmly agree!
ReplyDeleteWe all need time to think.
ReplyDeleteWe all need time to relax.
We should embrace free time and not worry about having to do anything!
Have a lovely weekend
All the best Jan
Can't be busy doing something ALL the time. Resting is something we all need too. : )
ReplyDeleteI love my solitude at night while sitting by candlelight, for that's of great importance to me!
ReplyDeleteI have moments like that and they are the best.
