This weeks assignment involves scheduling a few day of silence. No phone, no books, no computer, no conversations. Ugh! As I work on scheduling this event I come up with excuse after excuse.
I have responsibilities, how much will it cost, don’t want to burden the people around me… Then my next observation is how much I am addicted to the distractions. I am currently unable to sit and do nothing.
I find a book, my phone, a puzzle, the TV, clean something, organize… Anything to stay busy and not be ALONE with MYSELF!! How did it come to this? Now that I have made the commitment I have to say I am quite nervous about the silence. It doesn’t make sense.
