your daily rock : linger longer
Morning is a time to linger longer, one hand on the handle of your mug, one on the New York Times.
Evening is a time to linger longer, standing in the kitchen for a moment after cooking dinner, just smelling the spices.
Night is a time to linger longer, after putting your children to bed, standing at the door watching them sleep.
Sunshine is a time to linger longer, standing outside for an extra minute before going into work, your face toward the sky.
A lake is a time to linger longer, sitting on the shore, looking at the trees on the other bank, silently.
Seneca has said, “The primary sign of a well-ordered mind is a man’s ability to remain in one place and linger in his own company.”
Linger just a little longer today.
