Finding your own Isolation - a Quiet Spot
The poster states one word… “Isolation”.
The photo on the poster was what stopped me dead. “Can you imagine?” was my first thought. The poster designer certainly caught my
attention.
The one thing that is for sure
– rush hour traffic would be a dream come true on this Island.
There are times when the idea
of living far away from everyone is something that I have pondered. The idea of having no one living next door or
behind me is appealing at times.
On the weekends many of my
friends leave the city to go out to their cottage or trailer… where their next
door neighbor is closer to them than they are in the city. When they ‘burp’ (or
whatever) you hear it through the thin walls.
When the dog barks or the baby cries you wake up.
That isn’t isolation.
But back to the poster… when
the person needs something to fix something – how far is Home Depot or Rona(in
Canada)?
When they need a cup of sugar
or something to make the cake – who do you ask? Which door would you knock on
for help? Who would you share the coffee
and cake with?
If you suddenly need an
ambulance how might they get to your road and how long would it take?
Isolation to me doesn’t really
make my want it more… when I see the photo.
But I would love to see the
low mileage on this car… how many times back and forth would it take to make
One Mile?
This is Sunday morning… a time
to ponder deep and wonderful thoughts that you have no time for from Monday to
Saturday.
I hope you find some isolation
in your small world today. I hope you find a place where you can shut out the
whole world that is noisy and full. I
wish for you isolation without a small road and no one around you.
This morning early our back
yard was full of quiet. It was immersed in stillness. It was baptized with a gentle peace. It was wonderful.
Now it is time for breakfast
and more quiet time outside. Have a good
one today wherever it might be!
