Something about Sundays

I love Sundays. Even when I’m working, I love Sundays.

I think it’s because life stops on Sunday. On Sundays, I get to do the breakfast dishes while the parents of children with special needs drink coffee and then race their precious ones to the flying fox. On Sundays, I get to buy a hot chicken and some croissants and feed whoever comes into my house. On Sundays, I get to sit in my office and watch families get to know each other again simply by being. On Sundays, I get to be reminded that living is more important then doing.

So I will jealously guard my Sundays. I will eat apples all day and cook lasange for dinner, and I will stop. Because that’s what God commanded us to do.
