The importance of rest..

Last week I was bemoaning my lack of creative ambition. Maybe a lack of rest is the problem….

OR…. as poet May Sarton says…..

“I always forget how important the empty days are, how important it may be sometimes not to expect to produce anything, even a few lines in a journal. A day when one has not pushed oneself to the limit seems a damaged, damaging day, a sinful day. Not so! The most valuable thing one can do for the psyche, occasionally, is to let it rest, wander, live in the changing light of a room.
