This Labor Day Weekend, I’m committing to enjoying a “Sabbath” on a weekly basis throughout the year.

We are all harnessed to something.

I’m fascinated by how some FāVS articles relate to a 2016 book I recently read, “The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World.” It documents discussions between the Dalai Lama and the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu on the nature of joy. These octogenarians, both Nobel laureates, were from disparate cultures and religions, yet their love for each other and the world was palpable. The dialogues were recorded when the two met in India, the Dalai Lama’s residence-in-exile from his Tibetan homeland, to celebrate his 80th birthday.

‘We worship God by caring for creation,’ the report reads.

But the loan forgiveness that will change my daughter’s life comes at a cost. And when I look at the president’s program through a lens other than that of father, I must acknowledge that cost.

Hint: It’s complicated (just kidding, it's really not).
