relaxation

Sometimes we need a break from the buzz of life, no matter how full or light our schedules are. A break from what defines our life: the people, places, events, and actions. A time to sit home and just relax.

A need for a mini-vacation came come suddenly, but why do these feelings overwhelm us? Perhaps too much exposure to a certain thing in too short of a time; perhaps humans just need a break in routine every now and again. People could just need some time to themselves, to do what they enjoy the most with no one judging them.

Whatever the cause, a day away can be refreshing, almost as refreshing as a cold glass of water on a hot day. This private rehabilitation may be vital to a person's mental health, but in today's world, it seems as if stopping is completely taboo. Fast paced and never sleeping is what society values, not taking time to center yourself. As a whole, humans need to reject the norms of society to preserve our personal needs and wants.

Currently listening to Leona Lewis, Mariah Carey, Train, and Matchbox 20.
