The past year has been crazy. With the pandemic and every thing else that has been going on it is really hard to find a moment to just relax and not let everything around you be ever present in your mind. That’s why my family and I take Shabbat off. We don’t workout, do work or school, we just relax. We go on the occasional afternoon walk with the dog or wait till late afternoon to watch a funny movie. It is peaceful.
One thing I find is kids these days (and some adults too) are on their phones all the time. Now sometimes I may be guilty of that too, I try to take Shabbat to be off my phone and social media. Social media can be harmful to most people who spend enough time on it. On Shabbat I try not to get on my phone until after Shabbat is over, and even then I am only on it for a few minutes. It is peaceful.
Shabbat is a day of rest and relaxation and to praise God. I encourage everyone to find something that makes them feel peace on Shabbat and carry through with that throughout the week. Shabbat Shalom.
