about

In a time when there are so many competing social justice issues to focus on, reclaiming rest is paramount. This tracks is a reminder to stop, spell the roses, relax and REST.

Why not rest - you’re yawning

Besides you’ll need a good amount of sleep

A new day is dawning
Pause
A new day is dawning
