Enough

I had reached my breaking point.

I was working long hours, including hours on my days off. I was reaching the point of exhaustion. I needed to escape.

So I took off for the weekend and headed back to seminary to visit friends.

And it was enough:
  • just to sleep in
  • just to see some friends (and in general, people my own age)
  • to have a few meaningful conversations
  • to sit in chapel and receive communion
  • to sit around a bonfire with others, even if I only had the energy to half participate in conversation

The visit was enough and it will get me through.
