Value of the Rest
Today was one of those rest between the notes days. In the morning, I delivered the last portion of a 3-part series workshop and then spent the afternoon and evening with two of my grandchildren. It was a day full of cooling off with the sprinkler in the back yard, weeding the garden and washing the car together when the sun went down. It's amazing how much energy a 6 and 8 year old have.
I hope you find time for rests between the notes. After all, imagine a symphony playing continuous notes without the silence of the rests. Imagine continuous sound without quiet moments. Imagine continuous work without time for rest. Imagine life without rest.
