Here is the great paradox: doing nothing is the best doing something that we can do.
Stopping the glorification of busy is one of the greatest slogans our present culture can stand behind, because our constant compulsion to be busy stems from an insecure place that isn’t really serving us.
How often do we just “get busy” so we can feel like we are something—or someone?
Doing nothing is the opposite of this.
Because doing nothing isn’t really doing nothing at all.
Doing nothing looks like lying in bed in the dark and simply being.
Doing nothing looks like going out in nature and just glancing around and taking it all in.
But really, when we are doing nothing, we’re giving a trusting hug to our soul and knowing we are perfect just the way we are.
This is the true meaning of trust.
