For me, my Sabbath is not a sabbatical because the latter assumes that it is granted by an outside entity for me to study, travel, write, or create. Creating a Sabbath is an opportunity for intense imagination work and collaboration with Spirit. We have the ability to imagine a Sabbath that is unique to us and only us. What a beautiful space of invention to listen to ways you can disconnect, even if it is for ten minutes, a weekend, thirty days, or as a gift to yourself for an anniversary or birthday. The intent of a Sabbath is to save us. The intent of rest is to save us.
