Day of Relaxation

Yesterday I did something that I rarely do. I did nothing. I had no errands and my family was out doing their own thing. I pulled my lounge chair into the backyard, took out a few Reader's Digest magazines, a bottle of water and my portable telephone. It was an arsenal of weapons. The sun was shining but I set myself up in a shady corner. I did not move from that chair for hours. I daydreamed and pondered the world. I even closed my eyes for a while. Before I knew it, the afternoon had passed. I filled my day doing nothing and it was wonderful.
