“Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time”
— John Lubbock

Simplified Meaning:
Taking time to relax and do nothing isn’t the same as being lazy. Imagine lying on the grass in a park on a warm sunny day, watching the clouds go by and listening to a nearby stream. It might seem like you're not doing anything important, but this quiet time is actually very good for you. It helps your mind and body recharge. Just as a phone needs power to work properly, people need rest to be their best. By giving yourself moments of peace, you can reduce stress and feel more energetic when you get back to your daily tasks.
