I’m about to start my usual end of week ritual of trying to electronically and mentally unplug.
(I exempt my iPhone.) On very rare occasions, this ritual coincides with a real moment of accomplishment and I can easily relax in peace. But what’s more typical is a kind of forced letting go, regardless of the goals I’ve achieved (or not) during the last 6 days or whether I’ve lived up to the kind of person I want to be. For the next 24 hours, my tradition tells me, it’s okay. I’ve done enough. And that’s a relief.
Happy weekend everyone. May it be filled with calm, joy and really great food.
