Love this quotation from Wayne Dyer's translation of the Tao: To talk little is natural: Fierce winds do not blow all morning; a downpour of rain does not last the day. If heaven and earth cannot sustain forced action, how much less is man able to do?

If that doesn't cheer for rest and recovery, what does?

The weather has bounced between +15C and -5C. It's a good break, (talking about needing rest). The conversations, meetings, and food are worth the long drive. And the long drive is also wonderful - listening to Annie Duke's Thinking in Bets.

For a rest week, you’ve written quite a lot! I love the “intoxicating aroma of coffee beans and pastries”

(I'd prepped most of it ahead of time, as it was the compilation post!)
