RE: Burning the Midnight Oil

in #blog7 years ago

This is so real. I couldn’t have said it better myself. These past several months have been so challenging for me. I feel like nothing is in my control and I’m just letting life take me where it wants instead of taking my life where I wanna go. Something as simple as cooking dinner every night feels like an overwhelming task and I hardly follow through on the things I plan to do when I get home from work because by the time I’m done with my 9-5pm all I want to do is nothing. Balancing time and energy is extremely hard but it’s so necessary to live a fulfilling, happy life.

Thank you for visiting my post @introspector -hugs- I hope we find our bearings soon and stop this relentless tumbling. (Why are we in a laundry drier?)

I try to stay organized and keep notes in my wallet, on my Google calendar but sometimes it's hard to remember what they were all for with all the chaos moving to and fro as we wade through our day. I can't wait for the day when our smartphones have enhanced intelligence and can be our emotional support and companion while being a cute personal assistant as they guide us like our parents did before. I totally understand life feels out of our control and overwhelming when the house of cards tumble when you try your best. It's hard to pick up the pieces and start again the next day. Especially seeing the aftermath. Hopefully the answer isn't quitting a 9 to 5 just to work on our ambitions... But really, I just don't know. You have my prayers and I hope you can make it over your hurdles. I hope time will allow you to conquer one little hurdle at a time
