Make time for yourself

Life is so busy and so programmed in these days where everything good being done for our health, our enjoyment of life,ls forever being flashed before our eyes. Not that that's particularly bad, but there's only 24 hours in a day and something must give. All too often that something is your time to sit quietly and reflect on how great life is.

Peace and quiet is not something we rush forward toward, it's something we must carry within ourselves if we ever hope to find it. Those are not necessarily words of wisdom because its assumed everyone knows that, but do they? Take that minute or two whenever its available whether its on the jog around the block, the ride on the bus, or plane, or if it is while alone in the bathroom. Just close your eyes, take a deep breath or two and thank your creator for having allowed you to be who you are.

In making Him your partner you'll never again have to carry the whole world on your shoulders, he's there to give you a break now and then. He's there to tell you not to take yourself too seriously, you're only here for a little while and it'll all be over. What's all the rush for anyway, you must stop and ask yourself when life seems too busy for you to keep up with. The simple knowledge that you're taking yourself far too seriously may be the first step in lightening your load.
