Quiet Moments, A Time of Reflexion, Parents

As I began to write I was thinking what will I write about to-day. I have been having a quiet moment since this morning engaging in conversation only when necessary. The fact that I am often involved with people for hours at a time I appreciate ever so often a quiet moment. During these quiet moments I like to lose myself doing absolutely nothing, even going so far as daydreaming. This time of intellectual emptiness gives me a chance to be nonchalant caring about little. At one point or another I hear things that I probably would not have necessarily heard and notice the small things that may have been missed. The quiet time is a vacum at one moment waiting to be filled. As I slowly submerge from this cocoon of emptiness I slowly become aware of the immediate surroundings around me. I remember that my parents will be arriving this Monday and I have many things to take care of before they arrive. It is always good to receive family, mine visit for 10 days. I always find this a busy hectic time and with family, Mother and Father and myself at times it can become stressful as the fact is I continue my work schedule . Thus, as an only garcon in the family you feel that just maybe you could be neglecting them during there stay. Also as you observe your parents and you see them maturing as time goes by you reflect on the time factor and push aside the thought that this could be the last visit.
