Necessary rest

All would admit that human beings need a certain amount of rest. Sleep and physical repose rest the body. Religion rests the soul. In today's world it is when we get to the mind that the formula breaks down. People do so little thinking to day because of all our electronic devices that it is hard to imagine that our minds are very much taxed, at least on the average. I would say, so far from rest being needed, that just the opposite is true: we are in danger of our minds going into a state of atrophy.
