A Haiku For No One

Time is Precious
17 March, 2007

We waste precious time
Working and thinking. Instead,
We should do nothing.

The inspiration for this haiku is the quote by the Buddha: "Do nothing. Time is too precious to waste." This couldn't be truer today. So much of our lives is wasted with television, shopping, fighting, sleeping, working, and other activities. We're always doing "something." Take some time one day to sit and do nothing (aka "meditation.") It does wonders for your inner peace. Even if doing nothing means just sitting around and enjoying your family, with no media interruptions, give it a try.
