“In our time, in our civilization, sitting and doing nothing is considered either to be a luxury or a waste of time. But sitting can produce the most nourishing calm and joy and we can all afford some time to sit. How wonderful to sit and do nothing.”
– Thich Nhat Hanh
For me, especially to sit and do nothing in Nature easily produces that state of nourishing calm that Thich Nhat Hanh’s quote describes. Nature’s abundance and abiding wisdom is found in this quiet calm of sitting. It is a meditation, it is connection, and it is joy; certainly it is joy.
The wonderfulness of sitting and doing nothing in nature is so fulfilling, so very full and rich.
