I can definitely relate to anxiety surrounding time. I am always trying to accomplish more than what time reasonably allows and am not good at allowing myself rest time. I'm not sure I'll ever conquer this programming, but I am working on it.

You described it perfectly, Maria! We've been so programmed to think we need to do it all, quickly and I think it'll take a lot to convince us otherwise. Glad we can work on it in tandem, and with grace!

Michelle great job explaining what the dinner table means to Italians ( it’s not just about the food). I have an Italian priest friend who actually wants to write a book on the link between the dining table and spirituality! Trying my best to “do nothing” occasionally. Reading is the best outlet for me.

I would love to read that book! Glad we share our reading bond and that it helps you stay centered. ❤️
