Change...You Have To Believe In...Or...Something...
Yesterday morning I went to wake Elie up and she said, very adamantly, "I don't have to get up. It's not light out yet."
Ah, daylight savings time. We all like the "fall back" weekend, right? But that "spring forward" thing kills us... Of course, since we live in a largely agrarian society***, I get the need for the time change... But that doesn't make it any easier on Monday morning when your body says, "No, I'm sorry, it is not 6 AM, it's only 5 AM."
Ah, how hard change is... I'm pretty sure it was Erwin McManus in his book Unstoppable Force, who said we readily embrace the changes that make us more comfortable. Fall back is a GREAT weekend, right? But we resist the changes that cause us any kind of discomfort. Why do we have indoor plumbing when the outhouse works just fine, thank you very much? Hot water? Cold water is so much more available - and cheaper, dangit.
So...well, you get the picture. Just an quick observation...
*** for the irony impaired, yes, agrarian means...never mind...
