I might as well write

Well, I've been home, since all day yesterday, and all day today, due to feeling a bit under the weather. Life really completley stops when I get sick. I find it's really the only time that I genuinly REST. Yes, I still go online, blog, watch movies, try to read, watch movies, do puzzels if I muster up enough energy, but I don't go anywhere. I stay home.

Maybe if I rested more often I wouldn't become sick and HAVE to rest out of necessity. Resting should be like drinking water. It should be apart of my day. Resting goes hand in hand with reflection and quiet times with the Lord. Being still and doing nothing are completly different things (some wise sage wrote on the white board on the fridge). How true this statement is. Do we in this society know what it means to be still? To not do anything? How much more would we hear the voice of the Lord?
