Better Life With Steem | The Diary Game | 29/04/2021 | A Relaxed Day, some Yummy Food and my Thoughts

in betterlife •  3 years ago 

The last couple of days have been very hectic not only work wise but even otherwise the Covid news continuously flowing in from India, which has been stressful to handle. Last evening after my normal walk by the sea side, I was feeling very relaxed in my mind. For a very long time I was sitting near the sea side just staring at the waves and so many thoughts were coming to my mind. I was sitting in a small area which had steps connecting to the beach and since it was high tide, water was coming right near to the steps. I was watching the rhythm of the water, the free flowing energy that it carried and it was making me think, how we humans hold onto things and that brings in so much rigidity within us. We hold on to our beliefs, our ego, our possessions and what not. If we also could be just like the water, free flowing energy, life would be so much simpler. Spending a long time there sitting on the steps and looking at the waves, which were sometimes gentle and sometimes hard, it was making me reflect on how we carry ourselves in life. Yes life will be sometimes tough and sometimes kind but if we can maintain our free flow we will keep moving with ease. I was very relaxed when I returned back home.

The last few days even the work situation has been crazy, right now I am in a situation where I am doing somethings which I am not very pleased with, so I feel more stressed out. My heart keeps saying that I am done with this Corporate life completely, it's not my game any more, but then at this point of time I just need to carry on a little more to fulfill certain goals. It's a fight between my mind and heart and very soon I will have to make a decision as it clearly comes out that I cannot drag on like this. Normally the last few days I end up working around 10 to 11 hrs and that leaves me exhausted, even after dinner I need to catch up with pending emails, and that makes me sleep late. Last night I decided to stretch up a little bit more and complete some part of today's work also so that I can ease up a bit today. When I reflect back, I realize that I am not doing anything creative these days, I am more or less working like a machine. My Candle making, Drawing Mandala, making Incense powder and infused oils, all of these activities have stopped and I have not done anything creative in a long time.

Today I have decided to go slow and be relaxed not pushing work too much. Also tomorrow will be weekend for me, but I have some calls lined up, so again work is gonna take away my personal time. I woke up late in the morning and I was not in a hurry at all to do my daily chores. After bath and all then I gave good enough time for Yoga and Mediation. Since the last few days I have been not able to spend much time on it, morning somehow I manage to squeeze in 15 to 20 minutes, but today I could at ease give more than an hour. Overall it makes me feel positive and charged up.

After a relaxed morning, and giving some time to catch up on work, then it's time for some yummy food prepared by hubby. He prepared my favorite meal today sautéed prawns with garlic. They were yummy, thoroughly enjoyed my sumptuous meal and then I sit down to write my blog.

Evening I plan to go for a long drive and also do some utility shopping for the home, and that would be the day for me.

Thank you for visiting my blog. 👼🏻👼🏻💖💖🌹🌺🌸
