Pushing water uphill
There are days when - for whatever reason, things just do not go to plan. Tonight is a very good example of that. My neighbours are a constant source of strife, trustees of modern chemistry with angst thrown in for good measure. Normally i can let it go, but i do object when my property and my way of life is threatened.
I will find a way to deal with it, just not when it's a dozen to one....in their favour as tonight. So rather than spend my time writing as I had planned, I am sitting in my rather warm house, doors and windows shut, trying to avoid the conflict overflow.
Do you, like me sometimes find it incredibly hard to keep going, especially after a very busy week / weekend? When things don't go to plan? Personally I find it quite a normal circular process of highs and lows, especially after the kind of weekend I had, but I do find it hard to push water uphill, when my mind says - nope, need a break, can't keep on keeping on. Not today.
So, just for tonight I am allowing my subconscious thought processes to win over the rational part of my mind that says - but you have x, y and z to do. Tonight the water can stay at the bottom of the hill. Tomorrow I'll pick it up again and start working out the next steps that i need to take in order to achieve the next set of goal items. But for tonight, rest takes precedence.
And sometimes it is perfectly Ok to do that. Remember life is all about balance.
In the words of my mother "good night and god bless"

I must admit I do enjoy writing them, which probably explains why I do them :-) buckets of water picked up and hill climbing underway
Have the best day
