Resting

"Quietness is a great ally..." ~One Day at a Time

I resist rest. It seems to me that I've always been behind on what I should be doing, and that if I'm resting I shouldn't be. However, the truth of my experience for the past four years is that resting takes up a great deal of my time since my body seems to insist on it. As a result of the Heart to Heart retreat, I've been resting for three days. It can be a good thing. The quiet allows me to get perspective on what I want to do when I'm rested. I'm reminded of my purpose. As best I can, I try to be grateful for the need to rest.
