DON’T  BOTHER  ME!

Well, I don’t want to say it like that.

But sometimes I just want space.

I just want some time to be alone.

I want to just do nothing but read,

walk, think, pray, and be with myself.

How about you? Are there times

that you too want to be alone, to

have some space – to ponder, to

wonder? Hey Jesus had his garden,

his cave, his 30 years of privacy.

Wait a minute. Saying it that way,
seems too much. I need a minute or
a hour to think this all out. When
things are moving too fast and all are
talking, I simply want to slip slide away.
