The Quiet Life

Judge ye not for the macabre accessories in this video. 
Just listen.  And thank me for giving your ears something beautiful for a few moments.

I am currently in love with this song.  It speaks to my introverted heart.

And it reminds me that I sometimes desire to run away- even just temporarily.  My dream vacation is away from everything- no phones, no computers, no calendars.  It is in a cabin somewhere far from civilization, preferably where the weather is cool enough for sweaters during the day and bonfires at night.  I would only have to use a handful of words in the entire day.  There would be coffee and a porch swing.  Add a shelf full of books and I would be one happy lady. 

Quiet.

Sometimes we need it.

I don't imagine I will be running away anytime soon, so in the meantime, I can listen to music like that and read words like this:

  1. Can I share the cabin with you? I promise I won't talk to you anytime before 10 a.m. and I'll bring my own tea and honey!

    Which came first? The careers that serve others or the need/desire for quiet space?
