July 7, 2008 by enchantingsunshine.
It is my unwavering conviction that world peace starts with well-rested, happy people who take vacation. Perhaps you saw the recent article in the New York Times describing how many Americans don’t use all their vacation. That is, not even resting for a mere two weeks a year. What a tragic way to spend our short time along this cosmic plane.
Meanwhile, Europeans are laughing at us over their sandy beach blankets and home baked pastries, enjoying four weeks minimum of paid time off.
If I could do only one worthwhile thing, it would be to convince you to write to or call your worthless congressman (since Sarbanes retired) and ask him or her to support a vacation law for all Americans. Here’s a website to get you interested.
Do it! Go towards the light. Vacation is the first step to solving all America’s problems.
P.S. Wishing a peaceful vacation to one of my friends at a certain popular Maryland beach who is doing the smart thing and using his vacation time at this very moment. We should all be as smart as he.
