This was beautiful! Thanks! I will share it with my wife. I recently started doing what I have always wanted—to work from home for myself. I struggle with the idea that some days I may not be as productive as others, and that's okay! My wife suffers from the same ailment–guilt from a less productive day. I grew up with older people like my grandmother that believed in the sweat-of-the-brow life to be able to eat. I still remember having to clean the yard early and build chicken coops! Now it's a struggle to rest. But I keep trying because I don't want to die of ailments caused by work. Thanks again!
