"I have too much brain for my head; it cannot play at ease in its case."
~ Joseph Joubert ~
Sometimes my mind will not hush.
It pursues me like a whiny child who wants attention.
"What about this?" it asks me.
"What about that?"
It exhausts me with its questions, especially when I don't know!
Perhaps, like a child, what it
needs
is
just a moment or two
of undivided attention and validation
and a bit of love,
and then, perhaps,
it will go on its way and play happily.
I have compassion for my busy mind.
