Well....there is some truth in this saying 'variety is a spice of life' People and perspectives are renewed by change. Routine can be so tiresome that anything that breaks it can be helpful. But as good as a rest? Interchangeable with rest? Don't you believe it.
Rest should be more than a necessity. It can be a pleasure, a reward, even a kind of an art in that some people get very good at it while most of us don't do it very well at all. Human beings are renewable, rechargeable devices. When we run down and don't rest, we being to lose our light, our sight, our might. Each person needs to find his own formula for rest, but it should not be thought of as an interruption or a grudged necessity and certainly not as a waste of time. Rather, rest should be enjoyed, looked forward to and planned for.
For me exercising is the best way to relax, and it brings on real rest. It brings me away from the glare of the computer screen. For others maybe, rest is as simple as catching up on sleep. I don't sleep as much as I used to but short nap in the afternoon will recharge me and gives me a rested mind and body which will see me through for a longer night life. What do you normally do to spice up your life?
