Hey Joy Chasers. Question: when was the last time you took a break? Don’t you need a break?
Work is hard.
School is hard.
Blogging is hard.
Motherhood is hard.
Trying to concieve is hard.
Being a care giver is hard.
Chasing Joy is hard.
Life is hard because most of us are doing several of the above hard things at the same time, all of the time. We want to do these things well. We want to feel successful and like our efforts are not in for nought.
To do all of the things we need to do, and do them well sometimes we have to step away at least from some of these responsibilities.
We need to take a break.
We need to refresh.
We need to break up the monotony.
We need to take time for ourselves.
We need to take a time out.
I was lucky enough to take a break from some of my responsibilities for a couple of days. I spent a little time on tbe the beach and a little time by the pool.
