I love to listen to the water lap the beach, and hear the gulls fly overhead crying out their lonely songs.<br />In winter, it's my over-sized chair next to the fire. I can sit, and just bask in the glory of God for as long as I want.<br />I love this post. I've been feeling these same feelings lately. Wanting to slow down, and just breath in creation.<br />Enjoy your day.<br />xxxoooDebbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16600235934416288679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-24790133910654805672012-01-08T09:54:39.098-08:002012-01-08T09:54:39.098-08:00I would prefer to be at home alone sometimes but n...I would prefer to be at home alone sometimes but no one ever wants to leave me. My quiet time usually only happens after everyone goes to bed. Or early Saturday morning when hubby has gone off to work and the kids are still sleeping. Hope you are having a quiet, reflective day today.

I work part time and so each afternoon is my own. I just sit in my spot on my couch, sip my tea and relax. Perfect.

I also love to drive to the park near by and just enjoy the view, it is very refreshing. hugs, LindaLinda @ A La Cartehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16356471099319932835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-26593781852504364232012-01-08T04:16:51.005-08:002012-01-08T04:16:51.005-08:00Oh the things you can hear and see when you get st...Oh the things you can hear and see when you get still.

Of course, serene views such as you enjoyed ALWAYS are welcome, but I can be just as "alone" in my wingback recliner...I DO love solitude.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740950362293427086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-72731633749729641562012-01-07T20:17:34.857-08:002012-01-07T20:17:34.857-08:00A nice hot bubble bath and quiet reflection after ...A nice hot bubble bath and quiet reflection after that in my lovely green chair in my bedroom...with a great book to read..AH Sublime!diane stetsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12417123422917180979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-925673616741434546.post-59116558678070682432012-01-07T18:53:36.131-08:002012-01-07T18:53:36.131-08:00Nothing has been the same since hubby retired and ...Nothing has been the same since hubby retired and I really don't know where I go to be alone anymore...have not found an alone place. <br /><br />I can tell you a crazy alone space when I was raising kids though. I would take them to school and then drive through Hardees,get a bacon and cheese biscuit, drive straight to the automatic car wash and drive in. For a few, very few number of mintues, I treated myself to breakfast and the drowning noise of water raining over the car, blinding my windows for views in or out. No one knew where I was nor could even approach a window. It was all over fast and then I returned to chores, errands, ringing phone, and doorbell. Ah but those few mintues....!!!!!!Bookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12043111213031211794noreply@blogger.com
