Holidays are rum games aren’t they? Today we returned from our holiday in Suffolk, a most enjoyable week spent in a fairly isolated self-catering place on the edge of marshes not too far from Southwold.
All very pleasant but now we are back home, the routines of daily life have established themselves and Suffolk has already begun to fade from our memories. Yet we were still there early this morning. If our quick-fade holiday experience is common then why do we go on holiday at all? We are no longer escaping from a life down the pit or from the dark satanic mills.
Yet it still seems obvious enough why we go on holiday even though in our case we are retired and life is one long holiday. We escape from familiar routines explore new places and so on. Holidays are definitely pleasant interludes but – hang on there is somebody at the door…
…Only a couple of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Haven’t seen them for a while – told them we are still unpacking which is fairly true. Where were we?
I know – holidays. What do we escape from when we go on holiday? Obvious enough when we are working I imagine – we are still escaping from work even if we no longer fill our days with toil and drudgery. What else? I’m not sure. It feels like one of those highly familiar social experiences with its highly familiar language which doesn’t quite apply to the modern world.
Escaping from the daily grind of work – that’s still easy enough to understand but why do we carry on doing it when we retire? Perhaps holidays give us a sense of freedom – a freedom we cannot really attain but must believe in. Discarded responsibilities which we cannot really discard but for a week or so we can pretend.
I wonder if Jehovah’s Witnesses go on holiday?
