I had really bad sleep last night, so I decided to sleep in today. And as I made the decision to sleep in, I struggled with it for some reason. There’s this whole notion of seizing the day, and getting all of your time meaningfully spent. But sometimes, just like today, I had to learn how to just chill about it. It’s okay if I didn’t wake up at 730AM to seize the weekend. I haven’t had at least 3 weekends to rest, they were all busy rushing something, doing something. And at least for once, I could sleep in without worry.
That’s what we did, sleep in, have McDonalds for breakfast, and delivery at that. I even watched online church (as I’ve had to for the past few weeks because of my busyness). Guess what, the world didn’t collapse, and instead of feeling guilty, I’m actually rested, well fed and happy. I even cooked today, and I haven’t cooked in months. It’s just been busy and the type of food I could do easily was all food that was boiled or just made quite easily.
Maybe sometimes, more often than not, I’ve placed way too much priority on getting things done and checking things off. And having a day like today is a good break. Maybe I need this break a lot more than I think.
