Weekends are about a lot of different things to a lot of different people. The activities people engage in range from the relaxing to the depraved to the religious. Sundays seem to be a little bit different than Saturdays. They seem to be a bit slower. There seems to be a bit of space to breath on a Sunday. I am grateful there is just something different about Sundays.
My Sundays are currently are about a bit of food, a bit of quiet, and a bit of planning. It’s nice to have time to myself to just think, and Sunday is where I get that time. Having this time keeps me a little more levelled out. I’m not lazy on Sundays, but I do let myself move at whatever pace seems natural. For me Sundays are about just having space.
Luckily society lets us have a little space on Sundays. I worry this could be disappearing more and more. Our society is filling Sundays with more and more activity and chaos. We might be losing our space to breath and think. There is no doubt society doesn’t value either of those things. For now I remain grateful Sundays are a bit different and have a bit more space to them.
Giving ourselves this space is very important. I have lacked that space in the past. I just never let myself have it. Right now I give it to myself on Sundays. This may change someday. It really doesn’t matter. All that matters is that I keep giving myself space.
