    Hashem continuously creates the world, even

    On Shabbos.  But....didn't we learn that Rosh Hashana night Hashem withdraws his desire to continue creating the world until the yidden (in New Zealand?) blow Shofar and record recoronate Him again.

    The Rushiner could sense and feel when it waa Shabbos

    But we rely on a calendar.  How do we know when Shabbos is when all mankind was in a dark ark/teyva for a year without seeing sunrise it sunset and the track of Shabbos from Adam was lost?

    A writer must harness his thoughts and condense

    Them into words that are understoodable to another. They must be organized and flow.  A speaker does the same to a lesser extent.  

    Before writing the person is at ease allowing his mind to free associate. The are of condensing and organizing is exhausting. When it's done, the person comes back to himself, to his free association and free flow of thoughts. 

    Hashem also went this free association, later condensing and organizing and then return to "Himself", to His free flow before His speaking and writing. This is His "rest", which, like all others, we imitate on our level
