Alone Time
August 12th 2008 13:28
Never have I realized how important Alone Time until about 3 weeks ago.
My husband went on a week-long sabbatical (he called it his biking retreat) while I was left at home with my son since I didn't work anymore.
University of the Philippines academic oval
On the third day my husband was away, I decided to walk around the University oval (open to the public) as a form of exercise and brought my camera along with me. I was there for about 2 hours and I felt light.
It made me realize that we ALL need some time alone. Regardless of who you are -- a single parent, a mom, an executive of the #1 Fortune company, a father of 10 kids working 2 jobs -- it doesn't matter. We all need some alone time whether it's a mere 2 hours or 2 weeks. It's worth it.
It helped me recharge a bit, rethink about my life, made me appreciate life a bit more.
It sure is a bit of walk in the clouds for those 2 hours.
After which, I reconnected with some friends from my previous office and had a quick light dinner.
Alone Time, consider taking one. it's all worth it.
