Hurry seems to define much of our lives.
"What is the point of our striving and exertion?" asks Norman Witzber. People are buying more, doing more, worrying more, trying to be more."But for what?" he asks. Are we happier, more contented, more fulfilled?
A word to describe our predicament is"busy." We claim we can't find time to do all that needs our attention, and we fall behind in our"to-do" list, and keep trying to catch up. How do we slow down? We need to learn to"press pause" when we find ourselves rushing about and getting nowhere. An ancient wisdom which promotes rest and recreation is the practice of Sabbath. Although it has its roots in religion, the wisdom of Sabbath can be applied elsewhere. It is not just about having a day off: it is about rest and renewal, joy and delight, freedom and creativity. What Sabbath asks us to do is to pause and slow down, to appreciate beauty and share in community. A sabbath perspective helps us see life differently.
