It’s the end of the semester and I’m running on empty, so I’m taking the next two weeks off.
Whew…that was a hard sentence to write. I’m nearing the one-year anniversary of this newsletter and I’ve only missed a few weeks. I love writing and I feel like something is missing in my life when I’m not doing it. But taking breaks is an important part of nurturing creativity. I’m going to be more proactive in taking planned breaks.
In the meantime, I wrote a reflection on Beyoncé’s new album, Cowboy Carter, for The Presbyterian Outlook last week. When I come back to this, my next series may be about this season of self-recovery that I’m in. Writing the article inspired me to create a Spotify playlist that represents the range of my musical tastes, everything from disco to gangsta rap to folk. No gospel, though. Maybe I’ll add something later if it fits the mood.
Yes, REST is essential for the body,mind and soul! Thank you for all of your insights, writings and wisdom.! I look forward to reading this every Wednesday. Love for yourself! Take Care!
Enjoy your break! You’ve done a lot! Thank you for blessing us with your creativity. I enjoyed the article! Your mom’s sweetness reminded me of my grandmother. So sweet it’ll cut you!
