Each week I choose something inspirational to read to my students in class. This week I'm reading an article by Eva Herriot called "Time Out: Finding Peace in a Harried World." It includes this sage advice:
Allow time for your relationships. Never get so hurried that your loved ones become unwelcome interruptions that leave you frustrated and irritable. Spend time with your partner, children, and friends. Give them your full attention and open yourself to connecting more deeply with them.
Wise words, indeed. . .
