#297 Rest

Tomorrow. Tomorrow will be the day I will rest.But tomorrow I agreed work to be done, and it has to be my best.And there's this other favour, and that one too.I don't think the tomorrow's rest will likely come true.Maybe in a week? I'll say no to things people suggest.I'll schedule one day in when I can truly rest.Hold on though. I have this weekly commitment early each day.And that stuff in a month that I just can't delay.Next year, I'll be a whole different me.Maybe I'll stop my job and work and degree.And in that year, I'll make time to do nothing at all.Because otherwise I know I'll just hit a wall.When I am dead, maybe I shall lay still in my grave.Or maybe I'll still twist and turn and work and slave.With the knowledge of one more thing I should do.With a promise of rest held when eternity is due.True rest is needed, and not just doing a different task.The ability to stop. Breath. To collect yourself at last.We all need that time. A break from the day to day.And if I can't promise myself tomorrow's rest, then I shall rest today.***https://harryisapoet.blogspot.com/2018/09/rest.html
