What's more crazy- being lazy or being busy? Or maybe both those states are pretty normal? Lately I felt the need to watch again "Eat, pray, love", especially the Italian part (more "Italian" posts coming soon and you will find out why). One of the Italians in the movie laughed at Americans and pointed out that they do not know how to rest/be lazy/enjoy their free time. They work hard all week just to sit in front of tv all weekend. Brrr, that sounds too awfully familiar! I'm blushing and feeling ashamed, because even though I don't have tv, I do spent most of my free time in front of my laptop.
I'm to-do-lists maniac. Sometimes this method does magic, but pretty often it's just a proof of how much I could have done while I did...nothing. So I decided this weekend to be super lazy. I crossed out all the 2-do points in my agenda, no plans, no time frames, no scheduled meetings, no great plans. And guess what... I ironed the pile of clothes waiting for their meeting with iron for almost 2 weeks and I finally tried out that bookmarked recipe for chocolate soufflé. And it was a pleasure, not duty. And I want more! And it makes me feel rested! Where's the logic here? :)
