I mean, you may feel the
signs – a sense of overwhelm, inability to focus, insomnia… But, you may not realize
fully what’s going on… or, you may fail to see that there’s another option. If
you do see an alternate route, you’ll believe it lacks validity. You may
dismiss it as lazy, crazy or something similar.
But, eventually, it all catches
up. Eventually, it becomes loud and clear – your body has had it and doesn’t function
like it should. Your emotions get out of control. Your mind can’t focus. You
can hardly function under the weight of it all.
Why wait for that? Why fail
to listen until it gets extreme?
This life… it isn’t a race,
dear. Listen to the voice that reminds you of that. Listen, slow down and be
present. That means you can’t be
everything to everyone. That means you won’t be the
most “successful” by many standards. But, that also means, you’ll
have truly lived.
And that, my dear, is truly invaluable.
