You ever just need a moment to yourself? Like a moment of complete silence, away from the crowd, away from the noise, and away from your cares? Me too. Maybe you’ve had a rough day at work. Maybe your kids have been acting out of character. Maybe you are exhausted from work. Maybe you are sick of the drama in your life. Whatever the case, we have all been pushed to our breaking point. In those fragile moments, it is so important to steal away. Even if it’s just for a moment. Whatever you need to do to release… Do it……(as long as it’s legal and won’t cause harm to anyone including yourself). If you need to punch a pillow, do it. If you need to go for a walk or run, do it. If you need to yell or cry, do it!!! I am personally quick to take a hot bubble bath with lots of candles, wine, and soft music. It’s something about it that just takes my mind to a different place, or at least let’s me put things into perspective. Think of it as your moment to count to ten before you blow up. It is so important to listen to what your feelings are telling you. This all ties into self care. You have to make sure that YOU are taking care of YOU before YOU go crazy. Think about the people that are connected to you. When your not at your best it can take a toll on them or worse you take something out on them unnecessarily. This is all how I am currently feeling and what I am currently going through, so just know that you’re not alone.
After you’ve had your moment, just know that you can’t stay there. You can’t stay in your funk forever, you’ve gotta climb out. Think about the things that are going well in your life. Think about the people that love you and what you’re grateful for. God is good all the time no matter how bad we feel out lives are going. His timing is impeccable. I think it’s a good time for me to stop writing so that you can take a moment with God and listen to what he wants to say to your heart.
