It’s The Little Things That Are A Blessing

As I was sitting and relaxing on Tuesday, getting a manicure and pedicure for the first time in a long, long while, I began to think that this time of rest and relaxation that I am having is a true blessing.

I have been working super hard, both at home and at work, for several months. My body was tired, even more than I thought. Some would even say that I was close to my breaking point, physically and mentally. Being able to sit on the couch and sleep when I need to, or work on projects when I want to, or even use gift cards that have been sitting in my closet waiting for me, has been great. I had no clue how much I needed the time off to clear my head and regroup myself. Even heading to get a body massage on Friday, which is exciting me to no end.

These little things - sleeping, working on my own personal projects, and doing some radical self-care - may not seem like much at all. But with all of the hardships and trials I have been through, this time away from most of my stresses means everything to me. (As an aside, my body and soul are happy when they both have the right amount of rest.)

If you are overworked and completely frazzled, I encourage you to spend time doing those little things that will make you happy and will bless your life. The things that you decide to do may not make sense to anyone else, but to you...they are everything.
