| Apologies for being late... but I hope it's okay! |
My apologies for being late with the quote; totally forgot
about it. I had a busy weekend; we had three dinners with friends in three
consecutive nights (invited friends on Friday night and Sunday nights and attended
dinner at a friend’s place on Saturday night). Must remind myself to ask Rachel
to Whatsapp me in case I haven’t sent any quotes by Sunday morning on my turns.
Otherwise, I will always be late... But I hope the Tom Lefroy quote here made
it up.
From The Memoir of
Chief Justice Lefroy, page 33. A letter from Tom to his son Anthony:
“I hope you are attentive to your
business, and get your lessons, not merely so as to pass, but so as to
understand them as perfectly as you can, and above all things that you don’t loiter
and waste time. When you play,– play, – but when you read, read and don’t play.”
Well, I often feel that I don’t have enough time for myself
lately. Been chased around by deadlines. However, I am pleased to report that I
did not work at all on Saturday, and only worked on an email briefly for 10
minutes on Sunday. Last weekend was still very busy, admittedly. But still, I played.
Of sort.
Great pic and great quote!
ReplyDeleteReally resonates at the moment for me as well - always trying to do two things at once and then not doing either of them effectively.
Am glad you had a restful weekend last weekend and I hope that this one is just the same. Thanks Icha.
