Sacred Sunday

Hi there everyone. I am quickly writing (typing) this before I go to work tonight, because tomorrow I won’t want to after a full day at work and as it regards Sunday, it needs to be done before Sunday.

Goddess Leonie has this thing which is called Switch Off Sunday. Basically, she takes time out from technology to reconnect with the things that are important to her. I’m pretty sure her aim is to take time out from her computer, telephone and tv. All those things that keep us switched on and connected to the rest of the world. She does other things instead which vary, but the one thing they have in common is that they make her happy.

So I have undertaken it upon myself to do that same very thing this Sunday. I’m going to implement it into my life. For the first attempt though, I’m only going to take an hour off. That’s pretty big for me. I love the internet, love my phone, and generally have the tv going as well, even when I craft! So instead, I will dedicate one hour in the afternoon, from 2-3pm, where I take time off the computer, turn the tv off and dont answer my phone. I am planning to do some cardmaking or possibly read one of my uni books for that hour. No interruptions. However, if somebody like my family is ringing me, then I will answer the phone for that because it’ll be important. But any text messages will have to wait until 3:01pm.

I’m actually quite scared. The only time I am not constantly on technology is when I’m at work and am busy. But even then I check my phone. Plus I have to use computers for my job. But yes. Quite scared and nervous, but also excited to see if I can go for an hour. I will gradually increase it until I can do at least half a day. But the thought of half a day is freaking me out. So I will start small and build up.

I shall also post after I have completed it and let you know how I went. Maybe some of you will even think about joining in?

Butterflie hugs,

Rosa xoxo.
