Inside Mesa

I have mentioned to many that rest for me is a key word. Many come to that time when retiring from a place of employment. Others continue to work, enjoying the participation and social aspect of life.Moving to Mesa I slowly jumped in and took part in many volunteer activities. I learned so much and soon being a community activist, I found it very rewarding although some good times and bad.For me rest is not having to be concerned about the expectations of returning to the world of a busy volunteer.Although restoration can have several meanings as I previewed the word in an expository dictionary - I find I need to stop and "smell the roses" so that I can be as fully restored as possible. Definitions: restoring to the rightful owner, to give back, restore to a former condition of health, to mend - all with the tense a continuous present, being patience and perseverining.This is what I desire and know is right, and feeling it important to share this with you although personal. In my rest I do look forward to reading about your ideas and opinions! It’s been fun but it’s time to let go - and be at rest.
