Goodness, I have to admit that nerves and anxiety over all the things I’d like to accomplish over the coming weeks have been draining. That, on top of various family issues, left me so exhausted that I spent most of today stretched out on my bed–drifting in and out of sleep.
The interesting thing is that I think nearly collapsing was actually helpful, in a way. It made me slow down for a moment and really think about life calmly for a while, in a quiet space without any interruptions. I remembered the importance of taking things one step at a time, and of enjoying periods where I can just forget about any problems and recharge. And now I feel better than I have in weeks.
Have you had those kinds of experiences lately?
