I need a hobby!

On the way to drop Susan at the shop I mentioned that I didn't know what I was going to do today.She suggested "how about you do nothing.....you've had a long week and maybe you should just rest?"
I quickly responded saying that did not feel like a very productive way to spend my day.I returned home,cleaned out a slew of emails,straightened up the kitchen and then sat down to write with thoughts of what new endeavor could I possibly engage myself in. The next thing I knew, I was overcome with drowsiness.
Dear Lord no way! I am not going to just go and take a nap. What a supreme waste of a totally perfect day to accomplish something.
Now I am sitting here totally distracted. 
What's wrong with just chilling out?
What's right about just chilling out?
Why does every day have to be productive?
Why wouldn't you want every day to be productive?
Why can't I just enjoy life?
Why isn't being productive seen as being enjoyable?
See what I mean?
Maybe I should get a hobby?
Yeah....I'm not a hobby kind of guy.
This is not an unfamiliar place for me. I have been here before, in fact more times than I can count.Like any good farmer who understands what it takes to grow a bumper crop, I am staring at the ground beneath my feet and wondering why this dirt that has, in the past been so fertile,suddenly seem to be hard,dry and arid.
I am also feeling a bit weathered by age.
The spring in my step is not quite as bouncy today.
Getting going takes a bit longer .
Once I get moving,it just doesn't feel as energetic as I remember.
I suppose I could entertain my wife's sage advice and take it easy for a day.
Then again, I could just suck it up, pull up my farmer jeans and get back to plowing the fields of success.
Guess which one I'm gonna do?
Shabbat Shalom!
