Gosh, this is something I so enjoy everyday. Not being busy!! Being able to go through my day calmly and quietly knowing there is not much that is pressing which has to be done, and that there will be time to do everything.
We were so busy for about 4 years while Roy worked full time as a Professor and Deputy Head of Applied Maths, and I worked on the business that we really, really appreciate the slower pace now.
Time to make bread, casseroles and roasts. Time to garden, and plant a gargantuan vegetable garden. Time to keep in touch with the girls’ homework. Time to pray.
I so agree with Carl Gustav Jung–Busyness is not just from the Devil, it IS the devil.
Oh Lord, help me never to be busy again!
