Saturday

Simply enjoying
A slower pace
Taking time
Until my tea is gone
Resting and being 
Dramatically quiet
Adjusting intensity
Yearning for rest

You can find that rest, Kathleen. Keep yearning. The Sabbath (Saturday) is a day of rest for the whole world --- despite how the world treats it today.

Sometimes I think people try to cram a week worth of activity into Saturdays. I just try to do what I need to do and let myself savor a slower pace.
