Christmas Eve Reflections - 12/24/12

I'm incredibly sleepy right now, especially after a long day of rest and relaxation. I know, it seems counter-intuitive. Why would rest and relaxation be so exhausting? I honestly think it's because I haven't gotten much of either in a very long time. I'm not even sure anymore what it means to not have anything pressing to do.

So it's been tiring the last few days to live an existence that I'm not used to -- having all the time in the world to stay up late, sleep in late, read magazines, bake, work out, and catch up with friends, without worrying that I should be doing something else. It's really exhausting just letting myself succumb to time -- and life.

All that said, I kind of love it. I hope today (when I wake up again post-sunrise) will give me the same kind of space to breathe and inhale the universe as I've had since Friday. :)
