This week, Linda G Hill gives us the word ‘rest’ as her Stream of Consciousness Saturday (#SoCS) prompt.

How many people in the world still consider Sunday as a day of rest? It’s a thing of the past for most people here in Ireland. If we’re not working, we’re off doing other things. Life is fast-paced now. We don’t have time for resting!

When your body is tired let it rest

Go your own pace, your life is not a test

When your feet ache, and you can’t walk another mile

Stop, take a rest, and put them up for a while

When your mind is weary, your thoughts are in a mess

Take a break, relax, don’t worry, don’t stress. REST!
