For the Peaceful

"To the peaceful a house is like a forest and to the restless even a forest is like a crowded city." --Vasistha's Yoga.

--Before I began to practice yoga, I would get 'stircrazy' or a certain kind of 'wanderlust' a few times a year. I'd have to jump on a sailboat or surfboard, or go on a road trip or a long hike to shake off this feeling of stagnation and/or claustrophobia.

--After practicing for a couple years, I realized that I wasn't taking so many trips, wasn't getting this 'boxed-in" feeling, had no need to escape.

--When I saw this quote, it really resonated with me. Anyone else have this experience?
