Relaxing
Does anyone know what it is to relax anymore? I certainly don't. Wish I did! Stressful days at work, putting in overtime, working out, cooking, cleaning, homeworking, taking care of the house, cats, laundry, dishes, seriously. Why don't we take more time for ourselves? How is it selfish to take 1 hour out of the 24 in a day just for you. An hour may seem like a lot, which I understand. Let's start at 10 minutes, 3x a day. I am an overachiever, and going to go directly for 30 solid minutes a day where my phone is off, my television and computer are off, I can listen to music, read, write, talk to God, read the Bible, pray, sit in silence, do yoga, take a hot bath, whatever it is, but take 30 minutes to do whatever it is that I want to do to relax. Daily. Maybe I won't be such a grouch if I take some me time. I know I am not the only person who feels like they spend all their lives bending to the will of other people. What they want, what will make them happy, etc. Its time to start living life for you, and not the world, which means taking care of yourself. I'm all for that.
