Mother must have time to herself. We must experience the daily wholesomeness of Mother Culture. And we must not say, "I cannot." We need persistence to find time for ourselves, especially if our lives are hectic, hurried, and we have learned how to live on adrenaline in place of that highly practical virtue, fortitude. I like this quote by William Penn: "In the rush and noise of life, as you have intervals, be still. Wait upon God and feel his good presence; this will carry you evenly through your day's business."
