A weekend of rest and recreation. Just what the doctor ordered. Hanging out in the Adirondacks with the family, water sports and good food and a lot of laughs.
The old proverb said that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. And I find that to be true. It is a good thing to take a break, get some rest and have a little bit of fun. It restores the soul and reminds us that our lives do not consist of our productivity.
Even more important that getting the rest and recreation is having some people on the team to participate. People matter most, and spending time with the important people in your life contributes to the common cause. While solitude is sometimes required and beneficial, a solitary life seems somehow incomplete. We are social creatures, these humans. And we need one another.
And with all the fun and interaction and good things that happen on a weekend away, I have to say it is good to be home, back to the work, back to the growing list of honey-dos, back to the everyday. Because as good as it is to get away, it is better to come back to a life of contentment and peace.
I hope it is that way in your life, too.
