On the other hand, it's kind of depressing for those who have jobs that require 80 hour work weeks and can't find enough time to rest even when you want to. But I guess it's good to remember that when life is, by necessity, *crazy,* we should be super-aware of our vulnerability towards poor decision making and our need for God to sustain us. And hopefully give us a spirit of peace and restfulness even if our schedules can't reflect it.
