I read the posts and realized that the concept of "getting away" is one that must be practiced regardless of the "where".

I have a friend who says he takes one day a week to "get away" and so I went with him. In that day his thoughts and actions remained firmly centered on the rest of his week. He hadn't really gotten away... he just moved the location.

I have found that while it's a joy and pleasure to change my surroundings it is how I think that really needs the Rest and Re-Creation.

In Julie's post, the change in location was accompanied by the time to open up, Be Aware and take in her world. That is the whole of it.
