Treating myself kindly

I had to be kind to myself today and gave myself a break; I came home and took a hot bath and rested instead of taking the boys for their French lesson. I was tired and I needed to unwind and chill out a bit. I am feeling much better for it. Life is to be lived and not to be struggled through.

What is this life if full of care, we have no time to stand and stare? I have been able to write a bit today, a result of the kindness to myself and it does feel good to be going to bed to tell myself that I have written my column, started an introduction to a project I have in mind and also written an entry over here. Nana, rejoice in your labours.

Thank You, Lord for today, Amen.
