There are times in our lives when we act and react without taking the time that we need in order to rest and reflect. In some ways, this can be attributed to the fact that we neglect and forget to focus on the frailties of our humanness. We are both quite fragile and quite resilient all at the same time. Yet the idea of being fragile can be very overwhelming and so most of us tend to live our lives in the resiliency realm, where things feel more comfortable...Temporarily.
If we do not honor our need to just be, to just reflect, to take a hot bath, to read a story or to learn something new, then we are ignoring the fact that these are things which we are supposed to do. 
If we do not take the time to refresh our spirits, to reconnect with a Source much bigger than ourselves, then we can never be our best. There is a time for work, a time to bustle around, and a time to do...
And then; there is a time to just be. Allow yourself to breathe in the spirit of the sabbath. Give yourself permission to rest.Shabbat Shalom-Welcome the Sabbath.
May you take the time you need to renew and refresh.
