Going Quiet Rock-A-Bye-Baby

In fifteen minutes I start my experiment to spend all day Sunday silent. I'm not optimistic. Many people in my life want my attention are not used to disconnecting from me, nor I from them. I didn't actually stand up enough for myself on this. I should have held fast about not just wanting a day to myself, but needing it and deserving it, in order to make people understand I was serious. I'm not optimistic. In some ways all the considerations working up to this day have been more of a lesson than even the day of silence may prove to be. Just carving out a day has been so difficult.
