Sometimes all we need is rest

Most of us are busy that we forget the most vital part of life that we always neglect and don't give importance to, which is to REST. A four letter word that keeps us intact and give us energy when we need to push through. A simple term but when taken and absorbed, allows us to think and ease all our worries.

If you feel you're on the verge of giving up, then lie down and rest. If you feel you're taking actions you're not aware of anymore, then sit back and rest. If you feel you're all alone and the world gave up on you, then, clear your mind and rest. If you feel like giving up and life doesn't give you the satisfaction you want, then close your eyes and rest. If you feel like you're about to do evil on other people or all you do is makes you the bad person, then think, and rest.

People say that sleeping is the best way to rest. Thus, we fail to realize that we don't have control or we never really get the full meaning of rest just by sleeping per se. If you're having second thoughts, feeling uncomfortable, or worst case being depressed, then all we need is to clear our minds and thoughts.

It matters not from what generation we came from. It matters not what age group we belong to. It's no longer relevant what status in life we have. The stress, depression, and problem is always there but it may come in different ways. So the best thing to do is not to act on it. Just make yourself at ease, remove all your burdens at the time being, and most importantly, communicate to the Almighty One.

Rest is always there. It's free and it's something we can always count on. It also comes in different means. It could be a person, it could be a place, or it could be a happy memory. Take one if you need to. Take one if you have to. You just have to take one.
