Cacophony of the Mundane

Sometimes in the middle of here to nowhere, one is found in the cacophony of the mundane. A plethora of tasks screaming, the dissonance of "gotta get done," only to find stress and an atmosphere of uncomfortable uneasiness that surrounds all who dare to enter. How many times has the phrase, "Sit down, sit still and be quiet!" been heard? As a parent, there needs to be the re-evaluation of this phrase and do as it is says. Yes, just sit down, sit still, and be quiet for a minute. Take some time to study, ponder, and recharge the batteries so that things can get done and the more important things in life can be taken care of.
