What kind... is it called "rest"?

Today we say the word rest a lot.

But sometimes we start to wonder, too,

Did we really get a break?

Many people went on strike.

Sleeping on the phone all day

Watch the news. Watch the clip. Keep scrolling the screen.

But when the evening fell back, it felt

Why is it still tired?

Maybe we forgot that.

Leisure doesn't mean just stopping working.

Real rest.

Is to make our power "come back."

Some people rest by sleeping.

Some people rest by strolling, watching trees.

Some people rest by reading quiet books.

Some people rest by talking to their own pets.

These little things

May look ordinary

But if it makes us feel

Head cleared up.

Lighten up.

And tomorrow still wants to get up and live

That's rest.

Sometimes rest.

No need to go as far as the provinces.

Just so we can stop.

Looking at life a little slower

Well, maybe that's enough.

The world today rotates very fast.

But our lives

There's no need to rush with it all the time.

Some days.

Best rest

Maybe it's just telling yourself that.

Today... We can take our lives a little slower.

... Read moreในชีวิตประจำวัน เรามักเข้าใจว่าการพักผ่อนคือแค่การหยุดทำงานหรือนอนเฉย ๆ แต่จริง ๆ แล้วการพักผ่อนที่แท้จริงคือสิ่งที่ช่วยเติมพลังและฟื้นฟูร่างกายกับจิตใจให้พร้อมลุกขึ้นมาสู้กับวันต่อไปได้อย่างสดชื่น จากประสบการณ์ที่เคยลองหลายวิธี เช่น การนอนเล่นโทรศัพท์นาน ๆ พบว่ายิ่งทำแบบนั้นยิ่งรู้สึกเหนื่อยล้ามากขึ้น เพราะมันไม่ได้ช่วยให้จิตใจได้พักจริง ๆ แต่กลับเจอข้อมูลและภาพที่กระตุ้นสมองตลอดเวลา ดังนั้น เราต้องเริ่มต้นจากการฟังตัวเองว่า วิธีแม้เล็กน้อยอะไรที่ทำแล้วรู้สึกใจสบาย ตัวอย่างเช่น การเดินเล่นในสวน มองต้นไม้สีเขียว หายใจเข้าลึก ๆ ช่วยให้ความเครียดลดลง จิตใจสงบขึ้น หรือแม้แต่การใช้เวลาเล็กน้อยนั่งอ่านหนังสือเงียบ ๆ ที่ชอบ บางคนอาจติดใจการพูดคุยกับสัตว์เลี้ยง เพราะการอยู่กับสัตว์ทำให้รู้สึกมีความสุข และเป็นช่วงเวลาที่เราโฟกัสที่ความรู้สึกในปัจจุบัน ซึ่งทำให้หัวใจเบาขึ้นและลดความวิตกกังวล การตั้งใจไม่รีบเร่งชีวิต เป็นอีกแนวทางหนึ่งที่ช่วยให้เรามีเวลาสะท้อนตัวเอง และเห็นคุณค่าของช่วงเวลาเล็ก ๆ ที่เรามักมองข้าม การใช้ชีวิตช้าลงแม้เพียงเล็กน้อย ก็สามารถช่วยเติมเต็มพลังชีวิตได้ไม่น้อย ท้ายที่สุด การพักผ่อนไม่จำเป็นต้องพึ่งพาการเดินทางไกลเสมอไป เพราะการหยุดเพื่อรักษาความสมดุลของตนเองนั่นแหละคือการพักผ่อนที่ดีที่สุดที่เราควรมอบให้กับตัวเองในแต่ละวัน

A garden planter with various green plants, including green onions and strawberries, introducing the topic of "4 things I will never touch again after going non-toxic."

What toxic product you stop using?
Going non-toxic is a big decision and a difficult one. Most non-toxic products are more expensive and not much options available compared to the rest. When I decided to get to the non-toxic side of the fence, I was surprised with how much things I thought it was good, but was actually not.

There is a quiet kind of strength in surrender—the kind that stops striving and finally exhales. We often hold on out of fear: fear of failure, of loss, of what might happen if we let go. But God invites us to release what we were never meant to carry so our hands can open to what He’s trying to pl

A screenshot of an Instagram direct message conversation. The husband of a woman who was bullied online messages the commenter, asking for the reason behind their rude remarks and how to make the situation positive.
The rude commenter explains their behavior, stating the 'mini skirt' was the reason. They admit to escalating their comments because the woman ignored previous negative feedback, and apologize if feelings were hurt.
The commenter continues to justify their rudeness, claiming the woman lacks self-awareness. They compare her to their own girlfriend, who they say doesn't 'show off' in a similar manner because it's 'not appropriate.'
