Still

Even for a moment. To be able to achieve silence. Your surroundings are noisy, but your thoughts are louder than any kind of noise outside. 

In this connected world, it's been really difficult to sit still at any given point. I bet billions of Earth's population can no longer sit still because everyone is driving towards productivity, towards doing something, anything. Because results are what makes us useful. 

As I write this down, my mind is barraged with thoughts about what's the apt next concept/thought to write, how to make this post more simple, how to make life more bearable tomorrow and the coming days, how 250ml of milk will solve only a fourth of my current hunger, how I need to prepare stuff for work, how to write down a proper nomination for a colleague.

We work so hard, we work ourselves to the bone. But really, all we want is that life of quiet, that life seeing green fields or blue skies or blue seas, that life filled with laughter and love, that life with rain when we need it, that life when sun's out all the time.
