On a Summer's Day
August 05, 2015
“Rest is not
idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer’s day,
listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the
sky, is by no means a waste of time.”
—John Lubbock, The
Use of Life

Well, I for one have a hard time with this. I always feel like I'm supposed to be doing something, even when I am not doing a thing! So, as always, thank you for the reminder that this attitude is possible.
ReplyDeleteRita--I have trouble with it, too. I often choose quotes for the blog based on what I need to hear, so I'm glad that they resonate with others, too.
