The Desire to Coast Have you noticed the mind’s desire to coast? A habitual love of ease is rampant. What’s up with that? Since when does a lack of activity mean happiness? Why do we give in so quickly to sloth? What does it get you? Even when we have spiritual practices which we know would benefit us and others, it’s not unusual to fritter away our day. Laziness and idleness have their roots in feeling distance from Love. When we feel deeply impassioned to love, when we feel called to serve, to be creative, to share, to bless, to be used in service to our purpose, to make a difference, to simply be all we are, coasting is not an option. Who has time to endlessly drift? Next time a lethargy cloud floats into your feelings, ask yourself: “What do I really want in life?” And then in that moment, do something about it! If you don’t know what you really want, you may have just found the source of your indolence.
