    Love the quote! Priorities vary, but sometimes I think we put too much emphasis on being "efficient."

    This is stunning! And I definitely needed this quote, being someone who always fears "wasting time" by resting etc. <3

    Love that quote - especially since I spend such a large portion of my day "wasting" time.

    Wasting time is in the eye of the beholder. Sitting on my deck and watching my garden grow is never time wasted! Wonderful image.

    I love the quote so much! The need to be productive can be exhausting and not so productive. The painting is so beautiful and calming.
