The Value Of Rest

Rest is not idleness, and to lay sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.

This is a great quote from John Lubbock and there is a lot to unpack here.

As we get to the close of this year’s summer, have you spent time lying in the grass or listening to the murmur of water, maybe some waves crashing at the beach?

Have you taken some time to stare at the clouds and watch them wander across the sky, perhaps catch a sunset as it turns the clouds to orange, crimson, pink, and purple?

Are you recharging or draining your batteries?

If you haven’t done so yet, can you make it happen for yourself before the summer leaves us for an entire year?

Are you getting enough needed rest to be ready for the fall?

I challenge you to ask yourself these questions.

As I do so, I’m listening to the Caribbean as it washes the limestone rocks outside my open screen door…yes, we all need rest once in a while…and when you “rest”, the “rest” of the year will come alive…
