It’s time to peel back another layer of the veil…
This morning I finally broke out of the routine that sort of just formed itself over the last few weeks. I woke up after a solid night’s sleep (very rare these days), and I decided that it was time to get both kids strapped in the double stroller and out the door for a morning walk.
Out on our short little journey, I was reminded of the creative forces that tend to erupt while I am outside just walking around. I have escaped the 4 walls of my house - and the mundane routine that I had so eloquently allowed myself to fall into.
One simple little walk has restored balance to the force, and I feel like a regular human being with a purpose and meaning for the day.
What’s this all about?
I haven’t been balancing things very well of late. Not too long ago I shared with you all the importance of self-care, just as I myself fell victim to not being very good at it at all.
I put myself last, and everybody else and everything else first. Andboy oh boy, how I suffered…
I am sharing this with you because I know as a parent how hard it is to balance work, life, family, community, and all of our other commitments.
Here’s what I did today to shake it up:
- Broke the routine
- Decided to do something different
- Looked at what helped me in the past
- Brought the kids along
- Found my energy
- Restored hope
- Taking action
There’s a lot more to it of course. You see, last night I finally got a good night’s sleep again. My body needs that. Even though I was up at 4:45 AM EDT - I still got in a solid 8 hours of sleep.
Don’t get me wrong - the morning didn’t start this way. It was until I implemented Step 1 above where I even gave myself achance for change.
I have a pretty hefty “To-Do” list for today, much like every other day, and much like I anticipate YOU do…
Most days (recently of course), I haven’t gotten nearly anything accomplished. But today will be different. Today has the opportunity to be productive…all because I went for a walk.
What does it for you?
Let me know!
