“Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is the noble art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials.”
Lin Yutang, The Importance of Living
Two ferries, two nights, and a thousand miles got us to Tating.
I have the feeling that I left behind millions of things undone.
I took with me, of course, a big bag of stuff, like papers and letters and stuff like that. On the way, we stopped beside the motorway so I could join the weekly Teams call we have with the Teach An Saol planning team.
Some say that it was Saint Bernard who said, a long time ago, that the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Could it be then that the elimination of non-essentials, the noble art of leaving things undone, this wisdom of life, might keep you out of hell?
Should I try it?
