A few days of chilling, and now it's back to working with focus. But now, it's working on stuff that's (mostly) non-school related. Cleaning the house, preparing for spiritual retreat, taking care of odds and ends. I'm grateful for the time to do so. Cleaning while listening to books on tape, catching up on various important to-do's, with focus but without rush, feels quite nice. I want more of it. And I'll get a bit more of it, I think, during the rest of the break, before classes start up again.
I leave early tomorrow morning, so I've got a fair bit of time sensitive stuff to do for the trip, and some things I want to get done before the trip, so that's what today looks like. Then I'm off to get my spiritual batteries recharged. Maybe a general tune-up.
I'm hoping I'll get my course syllabi soon so I can start reading ahead a bit to get a head start on course work while I'm relaxed and time-rich.
Speaking of which, it strikes me that being time-rich, once basic needs are met, seems even better than being money-rich. And perhaps even rarer. And even rarer still, is being aware of how precious time is, and using it well and with proper savoring and enjoyment.
OK, I'm off to the races. But not too fast ;-)
