"Such faithful practice of work stoppage is an act of resistance. It declares in bodily ways that we will not participate in the anxiety system that pervades our social environment. We will not be defined by busyness and by acquisitiveness and by pursuit of more, in either our economics or our personal relations or anywhere in our lives. Because our life does not consist in commodity."
~Walter Brueggman, "Sabbath Resistance: Saying No to a Culture of Now"
The mornings are getting cooler and cozier. Now I need my father-in-law's Memphis Tigers hoodie and a soft blanket when I go sit on the porch with my coffee.
