Every once in a while, I  peel potatoes.

There’s a quiet to it, a simplicity, a clarity of goal.

There’s really only one way to do it; only one test of whether you’re doing it right or wrong: Is there any skin left?

Not a whole lot of brain power required.

But while peeling potatoes, it a good time to think; to reflect.

It’s good for the tummy, it’s good for the soul.

Feeling wayward? Needing time to get your head on? Go peel some potatoes.

You’re welcome.
