It has been one of those weeks when my brain was not connected to the rest of my functioning. No energy, no clarity of thought and just the need to sleep and sleep some more. Towards the end of the week the vision started clearing and I started finding purpose again.
It came to me that we all need purpose, goals and a clear pathway to follow in order to be fully functional.
The ability to break things down into manageable portions goes a long way to achieving goals. Sometimes we cannot see clearly in the maze of activities we take upon ourselves. It reminded me of the importance of breathing, taking a step back, out of the situation, just to refocus and put things in perspective.
Flexibility is the key to managing times like these and an awareness of self that becomes powerful once exercised.
Have you ever had moments like these. I think the praying mantis has the right idea. Ponder, sway back and forth and you will progress, a little at a time. Observation and awareness of your surroundings.
Perhaps we all take life too seriously and need to step back and forth as we make our way through the maze. It is not critical, and it is more important to make considered decisions in some circumstances. I have learnt a lesson this week about myself and am thankful that I went through what I did. It was a time of rest and pondering and I have emerged from it re-energized and focused.
