Lunch Break


The time to relax is when you don't have time for it. ~ Unknown

I was away in the country for a few days and I feel as if I have had a vacation even though I was working. I took time to go on walks each day. Today I ended up walking to a lake on my lunch hour. I did not really have the time. I could have worked through lunch as I do on most days but it was such a sunny and warm day that I just set out. I even turned down an invite from the resource teacher to join her for lunch. When I said I was going to go for a walk instead, she totally understood, encouraging me since she knew I had a three-hour drive home.

To my great delight, I came upon a park bench at the end of the road overlooking a lake. I sat there in the sun, just breathing. It felt FANTASTIC! I wished I had that view every day. I also wondered why I had never found this spot in the many years I have been coming to that school. Never too late, I suppose.

I should really take more lunch breaks…how about you?

Peace,

Suzanne
