Take a Deep Breath

There is always something to do, always work to be done. It doesn't pay the bills now, but is my investment in my tomorrow. At times work is not completed and fun is had instead, but there always remains more to accomplish.

I feel as if I live from one opportunity to sleep to the next. So many feel the same, I know. So many today are working so hard for immediate necessity and fulfillment while keeping future and ultimate goals close in mind. I am working for the life I have. For the impact I have. For the lives I touch, and those I have yet to encounter.

How can I complain? I've been blessed with incredible opportunity. I am tired now. Exhausted, in fact. But will not always be.

On occasion, I'll find myself with more than just a few minutes to utilize for relaxation. How do I spend that time that it might be cherished? I snuggle on the couch with Jenae and watch an entire disc of Friends while filling myself to the brim with pizza. Yeah. It works.

My appreciation of life would not be as such were I not obligated to work as hard as I do with the people I do.

I continue to count my blessings.
