So, what’s the big deal with rest? Do you really need as much as all the life coaches and medical type people say you do?
They say, no… you probably need more than you’re getting.
Well, what does that mean exactly? How do you know when you’ve had as much as you need? You already have a good idea what my feelings are on the whole want and need thing.
We can go back and forth about this for days and days and days… but eventually, you guessed it, we’re gonna need some rest. Being a squirrel, I tend to be revving my engine non-stop. But when I stop, I crash. I don’t think rest would even be possible for me when the engine is lit up. My pistons would seize, the battery would fizzle and I would end up worse off than I was if i had just kept going. It’s not the run that kills you, it’s that nasty sudden stop.
I think rest is good. When you need it, take it. If you don’t need it, or your body says it doesn’t need it, leave rest alone. Just like if you’re not hungry, don’t eat the cookies… does you no good. Listen to your body. If you don’t fully understand what your body is telling you, might be a good idea to get a qualified translator. I’m just saying.
Now, I need to rest.
