To all the familiar voices expounding
I should
I have to
I gotta
I don’t have time
It’s gotta be done today
If I don’t no one else will
If I don’t do this it won’t happen…
Pause
Breathe
Watch a sunset or sunrise
through the branches of your favorite trees
or on the horizon beyond ocean
lake or desert
or reflected in the windows of tall buildings.
Have a cup of tea, herbal or black
decaf coffee, or enjoy the caffeine.
A glass of wine … or not.
Take a moment to sit
to stroll barefoot at the edge of the ocean
river or lake
in a meadow or city park.
Chill, as someone I love would say.
Don’t wait until ….

Do you want me to ask you if I want to reblog one of your posts in the future? Different people have different preferences.

Your reblog option isn’t turned on! If you turn it on would you let me know.

I checked. It isn’t visible on the ‘home’ page, but it’s there on the post itself. No idea why. Maybe it goes hand in hand with comments being on the post’s individual page and not on the ‘home’ page.

Turns out it is that way on my blog too. I had never noticed that.
