A Realization from Rest

You may or may not ave noticed that Grateful Brand went without a post yesterday. This is because I gave in to some of the best rest I have ever been privileged to experience.

The work day was long and after a very raucous weekend, I was in need of rest. When a dinner date with a friend was canceled, I took the opportunity to catch up on some much needed zzz. Bedtime came very early and I woke the next morning feeling amazing, but I had convinced myself that I would wake up before midnight to compose a blog entry of some sort before it was too late.

Needless to say, waking up never happened and what little anxiety and regret I felt for not composing a blog entry yesterday has given way to having absolutely no regrets.

We so often take getting adequate rest for granted due to work and life being relentlessly demanding, pulling us in every conceivable direction.

I would not recommend sleeping through any of your responsibilities, but be sure to make time to get the rest you need. You and your body will be grateful you did.
