Weekends used to mean chores, homework, and no matter how late I partied with friends on Saturday night, church on Sunday. These days there is a broader range of responsibility to squeeze into forty-eight hours.
Most of us welcome the weekend as the chance to get done things we rarely have time to accomplish during the work week. Depending on personality and the current levels of busy, most fall into the pace that is most pressing at the time.
The decision to "do nothing" or "to get everything done" can weigh heavily.
"I shall use my time." ~ Jack London
With each new day, the Creator's wisdom provides the freedom to choose how we spend our energy; concentrating our breath toward meaningful moments between work and play. The weekend is a good time for 'catch up' but is also ideal for recovery and restoration from the stress of the week.
I value a couple days of 'catch up', but I also look forward to slowing down for purpose filled self-care with balanced energy toward rest, self-discovery, and pruning.
Make time to just be this weekend. Be with yourself. Be in your breath. Sit alone in the shade of the tree you have planted and have now become.
Inhale and explore the colors of your changing leaves and exhale to discover the possibilities of new seed yet to be planted.
Trust that it will be time and breath well spent.
