Yep, this is my TV remote:

Y'all know I come up with some pretty wackadoodle entries some days, and this is one of them.

Anyway, my remote control reminds me of God not because it increases laziness or encourages wasting time on fruitless TV viewing. Nope. It's because it represents down-time, which I've come to realize is an essential part of surviving this life. Taking time for yourself --whether it's in front of the boob tube or taking a walk or whatever-- changes so many things for the better. And those little stolen moments are huge blessings.
