What if life were as simple as spa music? Just a few repetitive notes or themes; hardly a recognizable tune; not something destined to become an ear worm; definitely no catchy lyrics or hummable melody.
Episodic. That’s what it might be. No crescendo to speak of, and therefore, little to label “dramatic” or any of its corollaries: Catastrophic, tragic, draining.
Yeah. I agree. Boring. Maybe okay for the duration of a massage or facial, possibly okay for a short read or meditation, but stretched out over a lifetime? Boring.
You know what you say. “I just need a rest from IT ALL. I just want some peace and quiet. I don’t want to run to put out another fire. I want some time off.”
Hey, look at me. You’ll get “time off” when you’re off time. Before you are off time, enjoy the crescendos. Put out the fires. If not that, then what? An unsingable tune? An unhummable sequence? A life without ear worms?
What if life were as simple as spa music? Would you truly prefer it to the cacophony and challenges you face daily? Would you prefer it to the interesting never-know-what’s-going-to-happen-next life you now lead? Go ahead; experiment. Turn on some spa music on YouTube, sit back, and do little or nothing. In fact, use the spa music as a background for a meditation on whether you want to sit much longer listening to spa music.
