Thanks so much, Jennifer! Now, I think I understand why I feel like a lazy bum all the time. I have no qualms whatsoever with doing absolutely nothing! When I'm tired, I stop and rest. But, that also means that I don't get things accomplished in the timeframe that I think I "should", and that my friends (one in particular) get so much more done than I do...which makes me feel like a lazy bum. I guess I didn't realize that ours is a culture of productivity and that I'm paddling upstream when I take an afternoon nap instead of forging ahead and marking 10 more things off my to-do list. Wow!

We don't have to earn our down time - just like we don't earn water or air. Yay for the book-reading! It’s so true. We don’t have to earn our down time – just like we don’t earn water or air.

Like you, I am aware of the need to "slow down to speed up" but I keep putting off the slowing down until I've sped up enough--which will never happen. My favorite way to replenish is reading a good book--I will start one today! I so needed to hear this today!
