e-Sabbath

e-Sabbath (n.) - a day in the week with electronics (mobile, net, laptop) off.


For me it's Fridays - the cellphones don't ring and the internet is off - ah.

Sabbath - a weekly day of rest - comes really early in the Bible. God takes a day off. Then he tells people - the human beings that he made in his own image - to do it too.

It must be a good idea. Not just the law.

What I like about taking an e-Sabbath is that for one day I remember that the most important communications are not mediated by electronic devices. They are face to face. Soul to soul.

Or in the ultimate case, Spirit to spirit.
