The Bliss of Relaxation


While my other half was away visiting family, I spent a rare weekend by myself at a nearby luxury resort in Mississippi. It was quite magical spending time alone. I didn't have any animals to look after. There were no tennis matches. It was all about enjoying a massage, a hot whirlpool and a eucalyptus infused steam room. It was heaven to my senses.

Just laying in my cool room with a king sized bed was peaceful enough. I further relaxed by soaking in a deep bathtub filled with hot water. My body had goosebumps as a sensation of extreme relaxation washed all over me. I meditated in the bliss of my environment.

Sometimes it is really okay to have a lazy weekend to recuperate from the stresses of life. I let myself do just that and I feel quite enriched from the experience. The rare solitude was quite welcome.

"stresses of life"? You're kiddin'. Right? I suppose all those tennis tournaments and Bourbon St. shennigans can wear a guy out. I bet you were laying in that bed crying and on that cell phone much of the time.
