Get some rest…
Sounds like an order.
Maybe a request.
However you receive it.
It’s for you.
What I’m sure of is that we all need it.
Especially right now.
We’re tired.
Weary.
Worn out.
Beyond stressed.
Our heads are on a swivel.
Looking out for the next…
… whatever that is coming our way.
For surely, it is coming.
It’s nonstop.
All the things that need to be done.
Right now.
Not later.
Right now.
Is that really true?
No time to stop and think about it.
Only time to be about it.
We need rest.
4th quarter is well underway.
The season has shifted.
Autumn is here.
We’re counting days until year-end.
Oh, the end of the year!
The kids are barely back in school.
We’ve nearly found our new rhythm.
And the holidays are soon.
Sooner than we think.
We need rest.
Can we just lay our heads down for a minute?
Put our feet up.
Catch our breath.
Catch a break.
We’re tired.
I see you.
Me, too.
I’m making some time to rest.
No, I’m taking some time to rest.
I truly invite you to do the same.
In fact, I encourage you.
Whatever it is can wait.
For a few minutes.
While we rest.
