The Rest. Sunday at church our pastor asked for a show of hands from those in the congregation who routinely slept 7-9 hours a night. Only a few people (out of a couple hundred) raised their hands, but two of them were my husband and I. I told him later how good it felt to raise my hand without shame, and how it was even better that both of us did, without prior discussion. I'm trying to change the culture around me by exalting rest and peace, rather than stress and busyness, and I was happy to see my husband in the same boat with me.
