Day 7

Though they might have taken it as such, it was not at all a joke when people asked me what I planned to do during my vacation and I said, "Breathe." I am very much enjoying breathing (even the occasional sigh, that for some reason I just exhaled as I wrote this line). I hope that when I return to work I will remember how important it is to take space for myself, and that I remember that very few people will remind me of this need or look out to make sure that I take care of myself. May G-d bless us all to breathe in a healthy way so that we have strength to lead meaningful lives.
