Sometimes life has a way of telling you to take a break.

As I progress through this life I have never before realized the importance of self-care.

If no one has ever told you – It is NECESSARY to refill your cup every once in a while.

You think I would take my own advice here given the fact that I always have a dozen things on my plate..

1. Mom of 2 humans

2. Wife

3 Full time career

4. Mom of 3 dogs

5. Nonprofit Chair Member

6. School volunteer

7. Blog writer

8. Chaos organizer

9. Drama mediator

10. Etc

11. Etc

12. Etc

I have zero time for self-care. I’m running on fast forward my entire day until my head hits my pillow at night. Pedicures? Massages? Coffee with friends? Retail therapy? Blah. Ain’t nobody got time for that.

But I should.

I am the sole reason I don’t have time for my own self-care.

I’m always burning the candle at both ends. Always too busy making sure everyone else’s needs are met while completely ignoring my own.

So when an opportunity presented itself to “refill my cup” this past week..I didn’t even hesitate.

“Journey to Him” has been a completely life changing experience for me. And I, admittedly, have no idea if I’m doing any of “this” right.

What I do know, however, is that writing helps me process.

What I also know is that I can’t process if my soul isn’t right.

I appreciate your patience with Part 5 as I was long overdue for a break. A mental break..a social media break..just a short period of time to ease my mind and calm my soul.

Many thanks,

Part 5..coming very soon.
