Empty Space

The usefulness of a cup is the empty space inside it. The benefit of a house is the space between the walls. Without the empty spaces, there is no house. To most people, this may sound too simple. But to the sages of old, it is everything. Think about it again, what would happen without the empty spaces between the Heaven and the Earth? Empty space is what you need to move in any direction you want.  It is what you need to make progress. You need it to build your new dream home. When you want to bring in any new appliance to your home or office , you first think about where you will put it. You create a new space for it. This is the same with all areas of life. Creating empty spaces in your daily schedule means more time to do things that really matter to you. By regularly reviewing every area of your life means you can identify which area is full and which area is half-empty.  The secret of life is revealed in empty spaces. The is why the sages loved to be in empty spaces. There is silence in empty spaces. There is God in empty spaces. This too is one of the many mysteries of the universe.
