Sabbath

My new definition of Sabbath: intentionally telling my inner Protestant work ethic that it will never completely run my life and that it will not define me in the slightest.  There is more to who I am than my productivity level and the number of things checked off the list.  It means taking time to be, even when there are things waiting to be done.  The last four months have been an intensive exercise in legitimating and affirming Sabbath time in my life...

And life is still good.
